Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
All cells, including tumor cells, need a consistent supply of oxygen and nutrients, delivered via the capillaries. Neoplastic cells must be in close enough proximity to a capillary to provide these required elements. The other factors do not have such an important role, if any, in neoplastic growth.

Answer to Question 2

ANS:
15
The child weighs 35.45 kg. The dose for IV push is 0.5 mg/kg = 17.7 mg.
However, the maximum dose is 15 mg.
