Answer to Question 1

C
Feedback:
Vigilon contains water and is soothing; it is appropriate for treating ischemia. DuoDerm and foam are used for hyperemia, antibiotics for necrosis, and debridement for removal of eschar.

Answer to Question 2

B
Feedback:
Sexuality encompasses more than a physical act. It includes love, warmth, caring, and sharing between individuals and identification with a sexual role. Sexuality may or may not include behavior involving the genital organs. Any physical interaction between two people is not a definition of sexuality. Behavior taken to attract a member of the opposite sex is not a definition of sexuality.
