Explanation:

Analyze Question 1

The question asks for a term meaning "confined to the nonliving cells of the epidermis, specifically the stratum corneum or layer."

• "Non-invasive" refers to procedures or conditions that do not penetrate the living skin or body tissues.
• The stratum corneum is the outermost, nonliving layer of the epidermis.
• Therefore, "Non-invasive" is the correct term.

Analyze Question 2

The question asks which cells "must never be altered, cut, or damaged" in cosmetology.

• Cosmetologists work on the nonliving outer layers of the skin (like the stratum corneum) and hair.
• "Living" cells must never be altered, cut, or damaged, as doing so falls under medical practice and can cause injury or infection.
• Therefore, "Living" is the correct term.

Analyze Question 3

The question asks for a term meaning "a material that permits fluids, gases, or debris to be absorbed or to pass through."

• "Porous" describes a material having minute spaces or holes through which liquid or air may pass.
• Therefore, "Porous" is the correct term.

Analyze Question 4

The question asks for a term to complete: "______ means a non-invasive, non-healing service, such as hair design, skin care, or nail care, provided for relaxation services."

• In regulatory standards, these activities are defined as a "Service" or "Treatment". Looking at standard administrative rules for cosmetology, a cosmetology "Service" is defined as a non-invasive, non-healing service.
• Therefore, "Service" is the correct term.

Analyze Question 5

The question asks where a salon or school of cosmetology must post a copy of the sanitary standards.

• Regulatory boards require sanitary standards to be posted in a "Public and conspicuous" place so that clients and inspectors can easily see them.
• Therefore, "Public and conspicuous" is the correct term.

Analyze Question 6

The question asks about the classification of performing services outside the licensed scope of cosmetology.

• Performing services outside one's licensed scope or branch of cosmetology is legally defined as a "Prohibited act" under administrative rules.
• Therefore, "Prohibited act" is the correct term.
