Answer to Question 1

A
Feedback:
Food and Drug Administration requires that new drugs and complex medical devices be proved safe before they are put into a consumer market. Food and Drug Administration establishes performance standards for products such as x-ray machines, mammography equipment, and microwave ovens.

Answer to Question 2

B
Feedback:
Humoral immunity refers to destruction of antigens by antibodies. Immunity can be inborn or acquired. Both naturally and artificially acquired immunity can be actively or passively acquired. Cell-mediated immunity refers to destruction of antigens by T cells. Exposure to disease-causing organisms over one's lifetime stimulates the process of acquired immunity. Humoral or antibody-mediated immunity protects the body against circulating disease-producing antigens and bacteria.

Dogs have been used in studies to detect various cancers in human subjects. They have been trained to sniff breath samples from humans that were collected by having them breathe into special tubes. These people included 55 lung cancer patients, 31 breast cancer patients, and 83 cancer-free patients. The dogs detected 54 of the 55 lung cancer patients as having cancer, detected 28 of the 31 breast cancer patients, and gave only three false-positive results (detecting cancer in people who didn't have it).
