Explanation:

Question 5

Allergic rhinitis treatment typically uses decongestants (relieve congestion), immunotherapy (desensitize to allergens), and antihistamines (block histamine). Hormone therapy is not a standard treatment for allergic rhinitis as it doesn't target the allergic response mechanism involved in rhinitis.

Atelectasis is defined as the collapse or airlessness of pulmonary tissue, which can be caused by foreign bodies, mucus plugs, or tumors like bronchogenic cancer. Chronic bronchitis is inflammation of bronchi, tuberculosis is an infectious lung disease, and pharyngitis is throat inflammation, none matching the description.

Answer:

C. hormone therapy
