Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
Anesthetic drugs administered by the inhalation route are measured in minimum alveolar concen-tration. This refers to concentration of an anesthetic vapor (at 1 atmosphere of pressure) that pre-vents skeletal muscle movement in 50 of patients given a painful stimulus.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A
When intubation is used for infants, bradycardia results rather than the tachycardia commonly found in adults.
