Pursuant to which Health and Safety Code section is the authority to control disposition defined, for purposes of who may enter embalming areas?

• A. 7100
• B. 7050
• C. 7200
• D. 7010

Answer: (A)

The key idea is that only authorized personnel may enter embalming areas, and the statute that directly defines who has that access and who can oversee disposition sets this rule. Health and Safety Code section 7100 is the provision that establishes the authority to control disposition and to determine who may enter embalming areas. This makes it the best answer because it specifically addresses access to embalming spaces and the regulating body's power to restrict entry to licensed professionals or other approved individuals. The other sections cover related topics (definitions, licensing structure, or general disposition rules) but do not specifically authorize entry to embalming areas.
