Answer to Question 1

C
Feedback:
Fecal incontinence mainly results from neurologic changes that impair muscle activity, sensation, or thought processes of a client. It is not primarily a result of the food consumed by the client or the client's drinking and smoking habits. It does not necessarily imply that stool is loose or watery, although that may be the case. It is also not the result of the client's social and emotional setting.

Answer to Question 2

A
Feedback:
Normal bronchial sounds are shorter on inspiration than expiration, with a pause between them. Vesicular sounds are longer on inspiration than expiration, with no noticeable pause. Tracheal sounds are equal in length during inspiration and expiration, separated by a brief pause. Bronchovesicular sounds are equal in length during inspiration and expiration, with no noticeable pause.
