Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
When dirty objects penetrate skin, microorganisms multiply rapidly, so the devitalized tissue must be removed and the wound should be irrigated.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
Ambulation improves circulation, decreases gas pain, eliminates general weakness, boosts one's morale, shortens the hospital stay, aids in digestion, and reduces pulmonary complications.
