Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
Vitamin K enables the liver to produce clotting factors in the blood that are necessary to prevent hemorrhage.

ANS: A
Ventricular tachycardia and ventricular fibrillation are the dysrhythmias of most serious consequence and thus most feared. An alteration of normal cardiac rhythm may decrease cardiac output, exhaust the myocardium, and lead to ventricular fibrillation or cardiac arrest.
