Answer to Question 1

ANS: A, B, C, E
Play activities to encourage fluid intake for a child include tea parties, crazy straws, cutting gelatin into fun shapes, and making ice pops using the child's favorite juice. Small cups, not large Styrofoam cups, should be used.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A, B, C
The advantages of an implanted port include reduced risk of infection, reduced cost for the family, and placed completely under the skin. Because it is implanted and must be accessed, it is not easy to use for self-administered infusions, and removal does require a surgical procedure.

Dogs have been used in studies to detect various cancers in human subjects. They have been trained to sniff breath samples from humans that were collected by having them breathe into special tubes. These people included 55 lung cancer patients, 31 breast cancer patients, and 83 cancer-free patients. The dogs detected 54 of the 55 lung cancer patients as having cancer, detected 28 of the 31 breast cancer patients, and gave only three false-positive results (detecting cancer in people who didn't have it).

Your skin wrinkles if you stay in the bathtub a long time because the outermost layer of skin (which consists of dead keratin) swells when it absorbs water. It is tightly attached to the skin below it, so it compensates for the increased area by wrinkling. This happens to the hands and feet because they have the thickest layer of dead keratin cells.

It is believed that the Incas used anesthesia. Evidence supports the theory that shamans chewed cocoa leaves and drilled holes into the heads of patients (letting evil spirits escape), spitting into the wounds they made. The mixture of cocaine, saliva, and resin numbed the site enough to allow hours of drilling.
