Answer to Question 1

B
Feedback:
Oat preparations, such as Aveeno, are used topically to treat minor skin irritation. Coal tar is not used for this child; it is primarily administered for psoriasis and dermatitis. Clindamycin is not administered to treat minor skin irritation. Bacitracin is not administered to relieve itching related to chickenpox.

Answer to Question 2

D
Feedback:
Serotonin helps regulate several behaviors that are disturbed in depression. Acetylcholine is a neurotransmitter with action in the cardiac and skeletal muscle. Acetylcholine has a limited impact in depression. Epinephrine is not associated with depression, though norepinephrine is implicated. Insulin is released by the pancreas to regulate blood sugar.
