Answer to Question 1

Multi-Protocol Label Switching, or MPLS, works by means of what is referred to as label or tag switching. A major advantage of MPLS is its ability to transfer any type of protocol data over any type of transport medium over any WAN technology. Also, MPLS has been developed such that it can accommodate mechanisms for varying classes of service. These classes of service are used to identify whether packets should be given preference in their routing. What this means to the business is that higher priority data can be labeled or tagged in such a way that this data receives preferred services and routing across the WAN. Being able to prioritize packets is definitely an advantage given that not all data needing to be transported by an enterprise is of equal importance. Often, MPLS networks are privately owned by large telecommunication service providers.

Answer to Question 2

FALSE

Chronic necrotizing aspergillosis has a slowly progressive process that, unlike invasive aspergillosis, does not spread to other organ systems or the blood vessels. It most often affects middle-aged and elderly individuals, spreading to surrounding tissue in the lungs. The disease often does not respond to conventionally successful treatments, and requires individualized therapies in order to keep it from becoming life-threatening.

Critical care patients are twice as likely to receive the wrong medication. Of these errors, 20% are life-threatening, and 42% require additional life-sustaining treatments.

Did you know?

There are major differences in the metabolism of morphine and the illegal drug heroin. Morphine mostly produces its CNS effects through m-receptors, and at k- and d-receptors. Heroin has a slight affinity for opiate receptors. Most of its actions are due to metabolism to active metabolites (6-acetylmorphine, morphine, and morphine-6-glucuronide).
