Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
Progestins can be used to control uterine bleeding and cause the uterine endometrium to shed.

ANS: B
Thrombolytics convert plasminogen to the enzyme plasmin, which breaks down fibrin clots, fibrinogen, and other plasma proteins. These products are used for lysis (dissolving) of thrombi.
