Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
Asking the patient, Is your breathing better now? leads the patient toward a desired response and may elicit false information.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: D
The effectiveness of a cough depends on the individual's ability to take a deep breath, his or her lung recoil, the strength of his or her expiratory muscles, and the level of airway resistance.
