Answer to Question 1

A
Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) such as ibuprofen inhibit platelet aggregation and prolong bleeding time, increasing susceptibility to postoperative bleeding. Acetaminophen is a pain reliever that has no special implications for surgery. Vitamin C actually assists in wound healing and has no special implications for surgery. Miconazole is an antifungal and has no special implications for surgery.

Answer to Question 2

D

Feedback
A Selecting a mate is a developmental task commonly seen in the early adult.
B Rearing children is a developmental task of the middle-early adult.
C Finding a congenial social group is a developmental task of the middle-early adult.
D A common behavioural task of the older adult is adjusting to decreasing physical strength.
