The person receiving the skin after the burn would be given these drugs most of the time because they dont want a ton of blood coming out of your body as your panicking or just sitting there feeling the pain which will make your heart beat faster in result of blood all over the place.

Answer:

The person who has burn tends to receive the skin from donor. In this case the skin from another person needs to be adapted by the body of the recipient.

The skin from the outside of the body can be considered as antigen by the body and it can be rejected by the immune system of the recipient.

In this case, the recipients body is given drugs which suppresses the immune system so that the skin graft cannot be considered as antigen for the body and it starts making antibodies against it and ultimately the graft is rejected by the body.

Answer:

B. "Whispered pectoriloquy" - "speaking from the chest"; used as a means of finding masses in the lung. The whispered word is audible in areas where fluid or a mass is present

Explanation:

Auscultation in medicine, is the action of listening to sounds from the heart, lungs, or other organs, usually using a stethoscope, in order to perform medical diagnosis.

Auscultation is performed for the purposes of examining the circulatory and respiratory systems, as well as the alimentary canal. The procedure is best performed in a quiet examination room. A stethoscope is used to magnify internal sounds. Small changes in breath sounds are carefully observed in order to make a diagnosis.

Whispered pectoriloquy is used to detect vocal resonance. It is  used as a means of finding masses (consolidations e.g. pus) in the lung and is performed by having the patient quietly whisper a word. If fluid or a mass is present, words that are whispered may be heard clearly.
