Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
A. Incorrect response: See explanation C.
B. Incorrect response: See explanation C.
C. Correct response: A person's biologic respiratory control system is responsible for control of spontaneous ventilation and is composed of four components: (1) central controller, (2) connecting nerves, (3) ventilatory pump (respiratory muscles), and (4) sensors (e.g., chemoreceptors and mechanoreceptors).
D. Incorrect response: See explanation C.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
A. Incorrect response: In response to increasing levels of FICO2, patients receiving PSV demonstrated increased chemoreceptor response, evidenced by a hypocapnia and a larger tidal volume.
B. Incorrect response: In response to increasing levels of FICO2, patient receiving PAV essentially maintained a constant PaCO2 (eupnea).
C. Correct response: In response to increasing levels of FICO2, patients receiving either ACV or PSV experienced increased chemoreceptor response, demonstrated by hypocapnia and an increased VT.
D. Incorrect response: In response to increasing levels of FICO2, patients receiving ACV demonstrated increased chemoreceptor response, evidenced by a hypocapnia and a greater tidal volume.

When Gabriel Fahrenheit invented the first mercury thermometer, he called "zero degrees" the lowest temperature he was able to attain with a mixture of ice and salt. For the upper point of his scale, he used 96°, which he measured as normal human body temperature (we know it to be 98.6° today because of more accurate thermometers).

The average older adult in the United States takes five prescription drugs per day. Half of these drugs contain a sedative. Alcohol should therefore be avoided by most senior citizens because of the dangerous interactions between alcohol and sedatives.

Stevens-Johnson syndrome and Toxic Epidermal Necrolysis syndrome are life-threatening reactions that can result in death. Complications include permanent blindness, dry-eye syndrome, lung damage, photophobia, asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, permanent loss of nail beds, scarring of mucous membranes, arthritis, and chronic fatigue syndrome. Many patients' pores scar shut, causing them to retain heat.
