Q&A

You have two choices for review questions:

• The questions that follow give you a bigger challenge than the exam itself by using an open-ended question format. By reviewing now with this more difficult question format, you can exercise your memory better and prove your conceptual and factual knowledge of this chapter. The answers to these questions are found in the appendix.

• For more practice with exam-like question formats, use the exam engine on the CD-ROM.
