Answer to Question 1

3
Rationale 1: Infections can be caused by a virus, bacteria, or fungi. Microorganisms are not always harmful, and some organisms are important to normal functioning of the body. An infection is defined as an invasion of the body by a disease-causing organism, not just any organism. Antibiotics are effective for bacteria, but are not effective against viruses or fungi.

Answer to Question 2

4
Rationale: Teenage mothers frequently respond better if teaching is demonstrated and they are encouraged to provide return demonstrations.
