1. What is the CORRECT CONTRACTION for 'will not'?

• A. Won't
• B. Willn't
• C. Wouldn't
• D. Will'nt

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The correct contraction for 'will not' is 'won't'. 'Willn't' (Choice B) is not a standard contraction in English. 'Wouldn't' (Choice C) is the contraction for 'would not,' not 'will not.' 'Will'nt' (Choice D) is not a recognized contraction in English. Therefore, 'won't' is the correct choice as the contraction for 'will not.'

2. Another word for UBIQUITOUS is?

• A. Widespread
• B. Last demand
• C. Uncertainty
• D. Finally reckoned

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The word "ubiquitous" means present, appearing, or found everywhere. Another word that closely relates to this meaning is "widespread," which also refers to something that is prevalent or found in many places. The other choices, such as "last demand," "uncertainty," and "finally reckoned," do not accurately represent the synonym for "ubiquitous."

3. As the leader of a group, the charge nurse is open to new ideas and thoughts of the group. The charge nurse encourages the group to participate in making decisions. This type of leadership is called:

• A. Laissez-faire
• B. Autocratic
• C. Democratic
• D. Direct

Correct answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is 'Democratic.' A 'Democratic' leadership style involves the leader being open to new ideas and thoughts from the group and encourages group participation in decision-making. This style promotes collaboration, communication, and inclusivity in decision-making processes. 'Laissez-faire' leadership is characterized by a hands-off approach with minimal guidance or direction. 'Autocratic' leadership is where the leader makes decisions without much input from the group. 'Direct' leadership is not a widely recognized leadership style in this context.

4. What is the meaning of NEBULOUS?

• A. Clear
• B. Vague
• C. Precise
• D. Obvious

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B, 'Vague.' Nebulous means something that is vague or unclear. Choice A, 'Clear,' is incorrect as it represents the opposite meaning of nebulous. Choice C, 'Precise,' is incorrect as it denotes clarity and exactness, which is the opposite of nebulous. Choice D, 'Obvious,' is also incorrect as it implies something that is easily understood or seen, unlike nebulous which refers to something unclear or hazy.

5. What does exogenous mean?

• A. Produced within the body
• B. Produced outside the body
• C. A byproduct
• D. Caused by bacteria

Correct answer: B

Rationale: Exogenous means produced outside the body. In this context, 'within the body' (Choice A), 'a byproduct' (Choice C), and 'caused by bacteria' (Choice D) do not accurately define exogenous. The correct definition of exogenous specifically refers to something originating or produced externally.
