Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
Respiratory therapists typically find DISS connections (1) at the outlets of pressure-reducing valves attached to cylinders, (2) at the station outlets of central piping systems, and (3) at the in-lets of blenders, flowmeters, ventilators, and other pneumatic equipments.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
Because there are only 26 connections for the 62 listed gases and mixtures, each gas may not have a unique connection. This means that some gases have identical connections.
