Explanation:

Question 4

Systemic signs of appendicitis are general, whole - body responses. Swelling of the knee, pain in the neck, and red rash on the face are not typical systemic signs of appendicitis. Fever is a common systemic response as the body's immune system reacts to the inflammation caused by appendicitis.

The definition of a nosocomial infection is an infection that is acquired in a hospital or other medical facility. Transmission involving an insect or animal host is a zoonotic or vector - borne infection. Transmission by a fomite is a type of indirect contact transmission but not specific to nosocomial. Spread by direct contact with secretions from an open lesion is a form of direct contact transmission, not the definition of nosocomial.
