Answer to Question 1

C
Feedback:
Mitochondria are very abundant in cells that consume energy. The cardiac muscle cells, which must work continually to keep the heart contracting, contain a great number of mitochondria. Milk-producing cells in breast tissue, which are normally dormant, contain very few. Cells of bone and of subcutaneous tissue do not consume a great deal of energy; therefore, they have smaller numbers of mitochondria than cardiac muscle.

Answer to Question 2

A, C, E
Feedback:
These drugs have three functions: (1) relief of moderate-to-severe pain, (2) adjuncts to general anesthesia, and (3) relief of pain during labor and delivery. Adjunctive therapies to NSAIDs or specificity for orthopedic pain are not functions of this classification of medication.
