Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
A fine-tooth comb or a soft facial brush helps remove the loosened crusts from the strands of hair after shampooing. This is an accurate statement. Shampoo should applied to the scalp and allowed to remain on the scalp until the crusts soften. Shampoo should not be rinsed off quickly. The crusts should be removed, and shampooing with antiseborrheic shampoo should be done daily, not every other day.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A
An acidic pH (55.5) indicates malabsorption, which occurs with lactose intolerance. The normal pH of the stool is 7.0 to 7.5. A finding of 8 would be alkaline.
