Answer to Question 1

D
In 1912 physicians wanted the Red Cross to put untrained nursing aides at their sides to assist with war casualties. Physicians, not nurses, would train the aides in caring for the sick. Delano was opposed to this aide education plan because it violated the educational standards already established by nursing.

Answer to Question 2

C
Infection is an invasion and multiplication of microorganisms in body tissue that results in cellular injury. Colonization is the multiplication of microorganisms on or within a host that does not result in cellular injury. However, microorganisms that are colonized on a host may be a potential source of infection. Flora are the vegetation of microorganisms on the human body. There are two types of flora: resident and transient.
