Answer to Question 1

ANS: 4

Answer to Question 2

B
Airborne precautions use a variety of controls such as a private room with negative pressure ventilation or filtration, with the door closed, and the use of an N-95 respirator. The respirator is worn to provide a barrier between the nurse's respiratory tract and the pathogenic microorganism.

Daylight saving time is used in some islands, but not in others—further shifting the hours out of sync with natural time.
