1. What is an important aspect of managing a child with asthma in a school setting?

• A. Limiting physical activity
• B. Ensuring access to emergency medications
• C. Reducing the number of classes attended
• D. Avoiding interaction with other students

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: Ensuring access to emergency medications. In a school setting, it is crucial to have emergency medications available for a child with asthma in case of an asthma attack. This helps in managing asthma effectively and promptly. Choices A, C, and D are incorrect because limiting physical activity, reducing the number of classes attended, and avoiding interaction with other students are not recommended strategies for managing asthma in a school setting. Encouraging physical activity, ensuring regular attendance, and promoting social interactions are important for the overall well-being of a child with asthma.

2. What is a common treatment for a child with a urinary tract infection (UTI)?

• A. Intravenous antibiotics
• B. Oral antibiotics
• C. Increased fluid intake only
• D. Topical antibiotics

Correct answer: B

Rationale: Oral antibiotics are the correct choice for treating a child with a urinary tract infection (UTI). They are often prescribed to effectively address the infection and alleviate symptoms. Intravenous antibiotics (Choice A) are usually reserved for severe cases where oral antibiotics are not feasible or effective. Increased fluid intake (Choice C) can help in flushing out bacteria but is not a standalone treatment for UTIs. Topical antibiotics (Choice D) are not typically used to treat UTIs as they are more suited for skin infections.

3. Approximately how many milliliters are contained in a half-cup of milk?

• A. 50
• B. 85
• C. 120
• D. 170

Correct answer: C

Rationale: A half-cup of milk is equivalent to approximately 120 milliliters. This conversion is standard and commonly used in cooking and baking. Choice A (50 milliliters) is too low for a half-cup measurement. Choice B (85 milliliters) is also lower than the standard half-cup measurement of 120 milliliters. Choice D (170 milliliters) is too high for a half-cup, making it an incorrect option.

4. What is the primary symptom of a urinary tract infection in young children?

• A. Frequent urination
• B. Abdominal pain
• C. Vomiting
• D. Fever

Correct answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D, Fever. In young children, fever is a common primary symptom of a urinary tract infection, often accompanied by irritability and discomfort. Frequent urination (Choice A) is a symptom more commonly seen in adults with UTIs. While abdominal pain (Choice B) and vomiting (Choice C) can be present, they are not as primary as fever in young children with UTIs.

5. What is one benefit of using a large sample size in an experiment?

• A. Chance variation is less likely to affect the results.
• B. The possibility of a placebo effect is eliminated.
• C. The experiment will be double-blind.
• D. The control group will be similar to the experimental group.

Correct answer: A

Rationale: Corrected Rationale: Using a large sample size reduces the likelihood of chance variation affecting the results, providing more reliable data. Choice B is incorrect because the placebo effect is related to participants' beliefs, not sample size. Choice C is incorrect as double-blind refers to a method of reducing bias, not directly related to sample size. Choice D is incorrect because the similarity between the control and experimental groups is not solely dependent on sample size.
