Answer to Question 1

Correct Answer: 3

Interdisciplinary healthcare teams function in all the environments listed. According to the text, the teams have been particularly effective in outpatient services, where clients are seen by a primary care physician or by a nurse practitioner and consultations are implemented as needed.

Answer to Question 2

Correct Answer: 4

According to Mason, Leavitt, and Chaffee (2012, p. 5), politics can be defined as influencing-specifically, influencing the allocation of scarce resources. Defined in this way, the word denotes more than action in the governmental arena; it is also applicable to every sphere of life where resources are limited and more than one person or group competes for them. Campaigning for a legislative candidate and joining a political action committee are political activities, but do not define the word politics. Having expert power does not define the word politics.
