Answer to Question 1

C
Feedback:
Because of its many adverse effects, isoproterenol is reserved for use in emergency situations that do not respond to other, safer therapies. It is not reserved for emergency use because of its onset of action, its duration of action, or its peak plasma concentration.

Answer to Question 2

C
Feedback:
Motion sickness is related to the vestibular (i.e., inner ear) system. This disturbance in this system may also cause disturbances in the GI (nausea) and CNS (dizziness) systems. The peripheral nervous system is not involved.
