    Though B&Jsmom has helpfully give you her idea of the answers, we do not do your homework for you. I am very confident that you would find the answers to every single one of these in your med/surg text. If when you do that you are unclear on rationales, derivations, etc., please ask us to clarify for you. Just don't ask us to fill in the blanks in your homework checklist; tell us what you did to find out for yourself first.
