Answer to Question 1

B
If a drug has several therapeutic uses, it is classified according to its most common usage. Some drugs are available in more than one form (e.g., tablets or suppositories) but are prescribed for administration by a specific route: oral (by mouth), buccal (between cheek and gum), sublingual (under the tongue), rectal (into the rectum), parenteral (not oral-gastrointestinal), topical (applied to a defined local area), or respiratory (by inhalation). Oral lozenges should be allowed to dissolve entirely in the mouth.

Answer to Question 2

B
The fetal phase (intrauterine development occurs from 8 weeks until birth) is characterized by rapid growth and differentiation of body systems and parts.

Dogs have been used in studies to detect various cancers in human subjects. They have been trained to sniff breath samples from humans that were collected by having them breathe into special tubes. These people included 55 lung cancer patients, 31 breast cancer patients, and 83 cancer-free patients. The dogs detected 54 of the 55 lung cancer patients as having cancer, detected 28 of the 31 breast cancer patients, and gave only three false-positive results (detecting cancer in people who didn't have it).
