Answer to Question 1

ANS: T
Plastic surgeons practice their art on all body parts. They attempt to restore both form (aesthetic appearance) and function of body part if necessary.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
Silver sulfadiazine (Silvadene 1) cream, when applied directly to a burned area, makes removal of a dressing less painful, and does not disturb the healing process as it is removed. It is an effective topical antimicrobial and produces no metabolic side effects, although some patients have developed neutropenia and delayed wound healing after its use.
