Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
Intradermal injection absorption is slow, which makes it the best route for tuberculosis screening.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B, C, E
When a controlled substance is wasted, the actual wasting must be witnessed by a licensed person, the narcotic log must be signed by both the nurse wasting the drug and the witness, and the narcotic count is confirmed by both people.

Your skin wrinkles if you stay in the bathtub a long time because the outermost layer of skin (which consists of dead keratin) swells when it absorbs water. It is tightly attached to the skin below it, so it compensates for the increased area by wrinkling. This happens to the hands and feet because they have the thickest layer of dead keratin cells.
