Answer to Question 1

D

Answer to Question 2

A, B, C
Hydrocolloid dressings comprise elastometric, adhesive, and gelling agents. They facilitate autolytic debridement of wounds through rehydration. They absorb exudate and encourage healing by maintaining a moist wound healing environment. Transparent dressings are more suitable for preventing friction.
