Answer to Question 1

B
Feedback:
If a patient was to receive 1,000 mL in 8 hours, dividing 1000 by 8 would mean that the patient would receive 125 mL in 1 hour, or 60 minutes. Setting up the equation, 60 drops/mL  X = 125 mL/60 minutes; cross-multiplying, the answer is 125 drops/min.

Answer to Question 2

C
Feedback:
Estrogen enters the cell and reacts with a receptor site inside the cell to change messenger RNA, which enters the cell nucleus to affect cellular DNA, and the final result is an alteration in the cell's function.
