2. A nurse administers 150mg of medication every 4 hours. How many milligrams will the patient receive in 24 hours?

• A. 300mg
• B. 600mg
• C. 750mg
• D. 900mg

Correct answer: D

Rationale: Rationale: - The patient receives 150mg of medication every 4 hours. - To calculate how many milligrams the patient will receive in 24 hours, we need to determine how many times the medication is administered in 24 hours. - Since the medication is administered every 4 hours, there are 24 hours in a day, so the medication will be administered 24 / 4 = 6 times in 24 hours. - Therefore, the total amount of medication the patient will receive in 24 hours is 150mg x 6 = 900mg.

3. Which of the following is NOT a recognized mode of natural selection?

• A. Directional selection (favoring one extreme trait value on a spectrum)
• B. Disruptive selection (favoring both extreme trait values on a spectrum)
• C. Stabilizing selection (favoring the average trait value on a spectrum)
• D. Sexual selection (selection based on mate choice that influences reproductive success)

Correct answer: D

Rationale: Rationale: A) Directional selection is a recognized mode of natural selection where one extreme trait value on a spectrum is favored over others. This can lead to a shift in the average trait value over time. B) Disruptive selection is a recognized mode of natural selection where both extreme trait values on a spectrum are favored over the average trait value. This can lead to the population splitting into two distinct groups. C) Stabilizing selection is a recognized mode of natural selection where the average trait value on a spectrum is favored over extreme values. This can lead to a reduction in genetic diversity within a population. D) Sexual selection is not a mode of natural selection in the traditional sense, as it involves mate choice and competition for mates rather than direct selection pressure on traits that affect survival and reproduction in the environment. Sexual selection can lead to the evolution of traits that enhance an individual's ability to attract

• A. 12 milliliters
• B. 24 milliliters
• C. 60 milliliters
• D. 120 milliliters

Correct answer: B

Rationale: First convert minutes to hours (1 hour * 60 minutes). Then, multiply the number of drops per minute (40 drops/minute) by the volume per drop (0.05 ml/drop) and by the conversion factor (60 minutes/hour) to find the total volume delivered: 40 drops/minute * 0.05 ml/drop * 60 minutes/hour = 24 milliliters.

6. Which hormone is responsible for stimulating the development of sex organs and secondary sex characteristics during puberty?

• A. Growth hormone
• B. Testosterone (in males) and Estrogen (in females
• C. Insulin
• D. Thyroid hormone

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: Testosterone (in males) and Estrogen (in females). During puberty, the release of these sex hormones plays a crucial role in the development of sex organs and secondary sex characteristics. Testosterone is responsible for male characteristics like facial hair, deepening of the voice, and muscle growth, while Estrogen contributes to female features such as breast development and the widening of hips. Growth hormone primarily regulates overall growth and development, while Insulin is involved in glucose metabolism and Thyroid hormone controls metabolism and energy levels. Therefore, the correct choice is B as Testosterone and Estrogen are specifically responsible for the changes seen during puberty.
