Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
Moderate sedation is formally known as conscious sedation. It is a drug-induced depression of consciousness during which the patient can respond to verbal commands. No intervention is required to maintain the airway.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: D
Spinal anesthesia, also called an intrathecal block, causes desensitization of spinal ganglia and motor roots. The agent is injected into the CSF in the subarachnoid space of the meninges using a lumbar interspace in the vertebral column.
