Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
Controlled respiration is defined as the complete control of rate and volume of respirations through the use of a mechanical device that automatically and rhythmically inflates and deflates the lungs with intermittent positive pressure, requiring no effort by the patient.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A
Nitroglycerin, a vasodilator, directly dilates capacitance vessels. It dilates both arterial and venous beds, leaving arterial pressures reduced.
