Answer to Question 1

C
The movement of gases into and out of the lung is called perfusion.

Answer to Question 2

A
Feedback:
The nurse should place the client in a lateral position when making an occupied bed. This facilitates bedmaking from side to side. Placing the client in the supine, the prone, or Fowler's position may not be comfortable for the client and would not be convenient for the nurse to make the bed.
