Answer to Question 1

C
Both localized and systemic infections progress through four stages: incubation, prodromal, illness, and convalescent. In the incubation stage, the infectious agent invades body tissue and begins to multiply, producing infection; the person is usually infectious to others during the latter part of this stage.

Answer to Question 2

B
Communication is sending and receiving a message. Communication consists of a sender, the person who initiates an idea, thought, or emotion that he or she wants to relate to another person; a message, the thought, idea, or emotion the sender wishes to send to another person; a channel, the means through which the sender sends a message, including auditory channels (speaking, hearing, listening), visual channels (verbal or nonverbal), and kinesthetic channels (touch, sensation); a receiver, a person who accepts the message from the sender using physiologic, psychological, and cognitive components; feedback, the verification or response from the receiver to the sender about the message; and influences, factors that affect both the sender and the receiver, including education, culture, emotions, perceptions, and the situation in which the communication process occurs.

Chronic necrotizing aspergillosis has a slowly progressive process that, unlike invasive aspergillosis, does not spread to other organ systems or the blood vessels. It most often affects middle-aged and elderly individuals, spreading to surrounding tissue in the lungs. The disease often does not respond to conventionally successful treatments, and requires individualized therapies in order to keep it from becoming life-threatening.
