Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
Diabetes mellitus is a chronic disease that causes small blood vessel disease that impairs tissue perfusion. It also causes hemoglobin to have greater affinity for oxygen, so it fails to release oxygen to tissues.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A
Serous drainage has the appearance of clear, watery plasma. Purulent drainage has the appearance of thick, yellow, green, tan, or brown drainage. Sanguineous drainage is bright red and indicates active bleeding. Serosanguineous drainage is pale, red, and watery and is a mixture of serous and sanguineous drainage.
