Answer to Question 1

3. Heart rate 72 and regular

Rationale:
Evidence of successful treatment for hypothermia is a heart rate of 72 and regular. The other findings indicate a continued low body temperature.

Answer to Question 2

A
The first step in the process of oxygenation is ventilation, which is the movement of air into and out of the lungs for the purpose of delivering fresh air into the lung's alveoli. The next step is alveolar gas exchange. Then the oxygen is transported in the blood to the general circulation.

Although the Roman numeral for the number 4 has always been taught to have been "IV," according to historians, the ancient Romans probably used "IIII" most of the time. This is partially backed up by the fact that early grandfather clocks displayed IIII for the number 4 instead of IV. Early clockmakers apparently thought that the IIII balanced out the VIII (used for the number 8) on the clock face and that it just looked better.
