Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
Postmyelogram care includes the assessment to ensure there is no leakage of CSF, sensation and strength of the lower extremities, or headache. To avoid a headache, the patient should be flat for a few hours.

The three main functions of the immune system are to protect the body's internal environment by destroying antigens and pathogens, maintenance of homeostasis by removing damaged cells, and the destruction of abnormal growth in the body.

This condition is progressive and worsens with time. More than 100 million people in the United States are nearsighted, but only 20% of those are born with the condition. Diet, eye exercise, drug therapy, and corrective lenses can all help manage nearsightedness.
