Answer to Question 1

A
Feedback:
Hyperaldosteronism is characterized by hypokalemia, hypernatremia, hypertension, thirst, and polyuria. Adrenocortical hyperfunction causes the secretion of several corticosteroids. Androgen-producing tumors of the adrenal cortex, which are usually benign, produce masculinizing effects. Adrenal hyperplasia results from deficiencies in one or more enzymes required for cortisol production.

Answer to Question 2

D
Feedback:
Ribavirin is inhaled systemically.
