Answer to Question 1

B
If a drug has several therapeutic uses, it is classified according to its most common usage. Some drugs are available in more than one form (e.g., tablets or suppositories) but are prescribed for administration by a specific route: oral (by mouth), buccal (between cheek and gum), sublingual (under the tongue), rectal (into the rectum), parenteral (not oral-gastrointestinal), topical (applied to a defined local area), or respiratory (by inhalation). Oral lozenges should be allowed to dissolve entirely in the mouth.

Answer to Question 2

B
The fetal phase (intrauterine development occurs from 8 weeks until birth) is characterized by rapid growth and differentiation of body systems and parts.
