Answer to Question 1

4

Rationale 1:Ciliary body is incorrect because the fluid is known as aqueous humor.
Rationale 2:Canal of Schlemm is incorrect because the fluid is known as aqueous humor.
Rationale 3:Trabecular meshwork is incorrect because the fluid is known as aqueous humor.
Rationale 4: A watery fluid called aqueous humor is found in the anterior cavity of the eye.

Global Rationale: A watery fluid called aqueous humor is found in the anterior cavity of the eye. Ciliary body is incorrect because the fluid is known as aqueous humor. Canal of Schlemm is incorrect because the fluid is known as aqueous humor. Trabecular meshwork is incorrect because the fluid is known as aqueous humor.

Answer to Question 2

4

Rationale 1: Psoralens are oral or topical agents that, when exposed to UV light, produce a photosensitive reaction. This reaction seems to provide benefit to the patient by reducing the number of lesions.
Rationale 2: Psoralens are oral or topical agents that, when exposed to UV light, produce a photosensitive reaction. This reaction seems to provide benefit to the patient by reducing the number of lesions.
Rationale 3: Psoralens are oral or topical agents that, when exposed to UV light, produce a photosensitive reaction. This reaction seems to provide benefit to the patient by reducing the number of lesions.
Rationale 4: Psoralens are oral or topical agents that, when exposed to UV light, produce a photosensitive reaction. This reaction seems to provide benefit to the patient by reducing the number of lesions.

Global Rationale: Psoralens are oral or topical agents that, when exposed to UV light, produce a photosensitive reaction. This reaction seems to provide benefit to the patient by reducing the number of lesions. The other answer choices do not occur when psoralens are exposed to UV light.
