Answer to Question 1

In the health care setting, individuals from different disciplines communicate with each other regularly in order to best care for their patients. Dietitians are integral members of the patient's health care team and collaborate with physicians, pharmacists, nurses, speech pathologists, occupational therapists, social workers, and many others when providing nutritional treatment. Dietitians must know the roles of the other team members in order to be effective and to ensure optimal patient care.

Answer to Question 2

The basic steps in the scientific method are to identify the phenomenon, collect data about the phenomenon, formulate a hypothesis to explain the phenomenon, test the hypothesis through experimentation, and evaluate the hypothesis.
