Answer to Question 1

Ans: A, B
Feedback:
Topical drugs are drugs that are applied to the outer layer of the skin but not absorbed through the skin, such as eyedrops and suppositories. A nebulized bronchodilator is an inhaled medication. A nicotine patch delivers the medication transdermally; that is, it is readily absorbed from the skin. A capsule is a form of oral medication.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: A, D, E
Feedback:
A 1-mL syringe with a 25- to 27-gauge needle that is 1/4 to 5/8 inches long is best suited for intradermal injections.

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.
