Answer to Question 1

ANS: 4
Complementary therapies are those therapies used in addition to conventional treatment recom-mended by the person's health care provider. They do not replace the prescribed treatment plan.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: 4
Meditation may increase the effects of certain drugs. For example, monitor individuals taking antihypertensive medications or thyroid-regulating, antidepressant, or antianxiety medications. Prolonged practice of meditation techniques sometimes leads to the reduced need for certain medications such as antihypertensive medications. Whatever the case, monitor individuals learn-ing meditation closely for physiological changes with respect to their medications. Adjustment of the medication is sometimes necessary. While the remaining options are not inappropriate, they do not assess the primary issue regarding medication.

Dogs have been used in studies to detect various cancers in human subjects. They have been trained to sniff breath samples from humans that were collected by having them breathe into special tubes. These people included 55 lung cancer patients, 31 breast cancer patients, and 83 cancer-free patients. The dogs detected 54 of the 55 lung cancer patients as having cancer, detected 28 of the 31 breast cancer patients, and gave only three false-positive results (detecting cancer in people who didn't have it).

Although the Roman numeral for the number 4 has always been taught to have been "IV," according to historians, the ancient Romans probably used "IIII" most of the time. This is partially backed up by the fact that early grandfather clocks displayed IIII for the number 4 instead of IV. Early clockmakers apparently thought that the IIII balanced out the VIII (used for the number 8) on the clock face and that it just looked better.
