Answer to Question 1

C
Close observation is necessary to prevent patients with eating disorders from purging during and after meals. Patients should be accompanied to the bathroom and observed while in the bathroom to prevent purging. Bargaining, lying, and judgmental confrontation are not appropriate responses.

Answer to Question 2

D
Contaminated meat is the vector for variant Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease. Dog ticks are the vector for Rocky Mountain spotted fever and Lyme disease. Mosquitoes are the vector for encephalitis. Airborne particles spread tuberculosis.
