Answer to Question 1

B
Feedback:
Concentrative meditation calms the person and promotes mental clarity and acuity. Mindfulness meditation promotes a calm nonreactive mental state. Transcendental meditation relaxes the body while keeping the mind alert. Trans-mutational is not a type of meditation.

Answer to Question 2

C
The loop diuretic prototype, furosemide (Lasix), affects electrolytes to cause hypokalemia,
the deficiency of the electrolyte can cause arrhythmias and muscle weakness.
