Answer to Question 1

Correct Answer: D

Answer to Question 2

Answer: Myeloblast, promyelocyte, myelocyte, metamyelocyte, band, neutrophil
Myeloblast: There is a small amount of cytoplasm that is agranular, staining from deep blue to a lighter blue.
Promyelocyte: The basophilic cytoplasm is similar to that of the myeloblast but is differentiated by the presence of prominent reddish-purple primary granules.
Myelocyte: The nucleus can be round, oval, slightly flattened on one side, or slightly indented. The hallmark for the myelocyte stage is the appearance of specific or secondary granules and can be referred to as the dawn of neutrophilia.
Metamyelocyte: Nuclear indentation that gives the nucleus a kidney bean shape can be a characteristic that differentiates a metamyelocyte from a myelocyte, but nuclear shape is variable and is not the most reliable identifying feature. The nuclear chromatin is coarse and clumped and stains dark purple. The ratio of secondary to primary granules is 2:1
Band: Nuclear indentation gives the nucleus a horseshoe shape, and the chromatin is condensed. The band neutrophil is the first stage that normally is found in the peripheral blood.
Segmented neutrophil: Segmented nucleus with two or more lobes connected by a thin nuclear filament. The chromatin is condensed and stains a deep purple black.

There can actually be a 25-hour time difference between certain locations in the world. The International Date Line passes between the islands of Samoa and American Samoa. It is not a straight line, but "zig-zags" around various island chains. Therefore, Samoa and nearby islands have one date, while American Samoa and nearby islands are one day behind. Daylight saving time is used in some islands, but not in others—further shifting the hours out of sync with natural time.

Although the Roman numeral for the number 4 has always been taught to have been "IV," according to historians, the ancient Romans probably used "IIII" most of the time. This is partially backed up by the fact that early grandfather clocks displayed IIII for the number 4 instead of IV. Early clockmakers apparently thought that the IIII balanced out the VIII (used for the number 8) on the clock face and that it just looked better.

Before a vaccine is licensed in the USA, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) reviews it for safety and effectiveness. The CDC then reviews all studies again, as well as the American Academy of Pediatrics and the American Academy of Family Physicians. Every lot of vaccine is tested before administration to the public, and the FDA regularly inspects vaccine manufacturers' facilities.
