Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
Rapid-acting nitrates are used most commonly to relieve pain in acute angina.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A, C, E
Alkylating agents are used to interfere with the normal process of cell division by attaching physically to DNA in the tumor cells. This effect occurs in both malignant and normal cells, although malignant cells seem to be affected much more by the medications.
