Answer to Question 1

A, B, D
The chain of infection includes a portal of entry, a susceptible host, and a reservoir.

Answer to Question 2

A
Talwin should not be used in frail older people because it leads to central nervous system ex-citement, confusion, and agitation. The other drugs are appropriate choices.
