Answer to Question 1

1,2,3
Rationale 1: Treatment of STIs is an area of treatment focus in women's health.

Answer to Question 2

1
Rationale 1: The first stage of the inflammatory response is characterized by redness, warmth, and swelling because of increased blood supply to the area. The second phase is characterized by drainage as phagocytic cells attempt to remove microorganisms from the wound. The third stage is the reparative phase, where swelling and redness are gone and new tissue begins to form. There is no such thing as the pre-inflammatory stage.
