HESI A2

Quizlet Vocabulary HESI A2

1. Which sentence uses the correct form of the verb?

A. She has completed the project
B. She has completed the project
C. She has been completed the project
D. She has completed the project

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is 'She has completed the project.' The sentence uses the present perfect tense with 'has completed,' which is the correct form of the verb. Choice A is incorrect due to the subject-verb agreement error ('She' requires 'has' instead of 'have'). Choice C is incorrect as it changes the meaning by using the passive voice 'has been completed' instead of the active voice. Choice D is incorrect as 'complete' should be 'completed' to match the present perfect tense.

2. What is the meaning of Regulations?

A. Rules for Conduct
B. Official Standards
C. Personal Guidelines
D. Suggestions

Correct answer: A

Rationale: Regulations refer to rules or directives established by authorities to govern conduct or actions. Therefore, the correct answer is A - 'Rules for Conduct.' Choice B, 'Official Standards,' is incorrect as regulations go beyond just setting standards to include specific rules for behavior. Choice C, 'Personal Guidelines,' is incorrect as regulations are not individualized but are generally applicable rules. Choice D, 'Suggestions,' is incorrect as regulations are mandatory and carry legal weight, unlike suggestions which are optional and not binding.

3. Select the meaning of the underlined word in the following sentence. The patient is lying prone next to the monitor.

A. Face down
B. Immovable
C. Face up
D. Asleep

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The word 'prone' in the sentence 'The patient is lying prone next to the monitor' indicates that the patient is positioned face down. 'Prone' refers to the body position in which the front surface of the body, such as the chest or abdomen, is facing downwards. Therefore, choice A, 'Face down,' is the correct meaning. Choices B, 'Immovable,' C, 'Face up,' and D, 'Asleep,' are incorrect as they do not accurately describe the meaning of 'prone' in the context of the sentence.

4. Another word for CONSISTENCY is?

A. Appearance
B. Volatility
C. Thickness
D. Color

Correct answer: C

Rationale: Consistency refers to the quality of staying the same in behavior or level. Thickness is a synonym for consistency as it implies a state of being dense, compact, or solid throughout, which aligns with the idea of staying the same. Conversely, appearance, volatility, and color do not directly relate to the concept of consistency. 'Appearance' refers to how something looks, 'volatility' refers to how easily something changes, and 'color' refers to the hue or shade of something, none of which capture the essence of consistency.

5. The hospital accepts a certain quota of 'indigent' patients.

A. Uninjured
B. Apathetic
C. Resentful
D. Impoverished

Correct answer: D

Rationale: The word 'indigent' refers to people who are poor or impoverished, lacking financial resources. Therefore, the correct choice is D, 'Impoverished.' Choices A, B, and C are incorrect because they do not accurately reflect the meaning of 'indigent.' Choice A, 'Uninjured,' is unrelated to financial status. Choice B, 'Apathetic,' means showing no interest or concern, which is irrelevant. Choice C, 'Resentful,' means feeling bitterness or indignation, which is also unrelated to poverty.
