Answer to Question 1

D
The use of the PCA gives quicker relief as there is no delay in waiting for the nurse to respond to the request for analgesia.

Answer to Question 2

A
In the autocratic family pattern the relationships are unequal. The parents attempt to control the children with strict, rigid rules and expectations. This family pattern is least open to outside influence.
