Answer to Question 1

ANS: B, D, E
People of the Roman Catholic faith may take medicine and water before communion. If the patient is a gravely ill infant, a stillbirth, or a fetus, the nurse may baptize without a witness. Cremation and organ donation are allowed.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A, F
Jewish patients believe in God but not Christ. Buddhist patients follow the teaching of Siddhartha Gautama rather than the teachings of Jesus. The remaining options are Christian religious groups.
