Answer to Question 1

Ans: A, C, D
Feedback:
Estrogens can relieve symptoms of menopause but can lead to blood pressure and lipid changes. ERT can help lessen the changes to aging tissues, but the estrogen does increase a woman's risk for gallbladder disease. The addition of progestin is recommended when estrogen is used to treat menopausal symptoms in a woman with an intact uterus. Estrogen alone may be used for estrogen replacement therapy after a hysterectomy. The administration of estrogen by any route may result in many adverse reactions, although these reactions vary in incidence and intensity.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: A, B, C, E
Feedback:
Testolactone (Teslac), leuprolide (Lupron), megestrol (Megace), bicalutamide (Casodex), and goserelin (Zoladex) are hormones used as antineoplastic drugs.

Although the Roman numeral for the number 4 has always been taught to have been "IV," according to historians, the ancient Romans probably used "IIII" most of the time. This is partially backed up by the fact that early grandfather clocks displayed IIII for the number 4 instead of IV. Early clockmakers apparently thought that the IIII balanced out the VIII (used for the number 8) on the clock face and that it just looked better.
