Answer to Question 1

If injections are given in the rear limbs, the renal portal system delivers the drug to the kidneys, which filter out the intended dose.

Answer to Question 2

(a) lizards: ventral coccygeal vein, ventral abdominal vein
(b) snakes: cardiac puncture, ventral coccygeal vein
(c) chelonians: the jugular vein, both the dorsal and ventral coccygeal veins, the carotid artery, the heart (soft-shelled turtle), and the sub-carapacial vein. Any two would be correct.

Early clockmakers apparently thought that the IIII balanced out the VIII (used for the number 8) on the clock face and that it just looked better.
