Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
Federal and state laws make it a crime for anyone to possess controlled substances without a prescription. Each state has a practice act that lists which health care providers may dispense and write prescriptions for controlled substances. Physicians may write prescriptions for controlled substances.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
The generic name is the common drug name used. This name is the same in all countries. The generic drug name is written in lower-case letters, whereas the trade name or brand name of a drug is capitalized.

Dogs have been used in studies to detect various cancers in human subjects. They have been trained to sniff breath samples from humans that were collected by having them breathe into special tubes. These people included 55 lung cancer patients, 31 breast cancer patients, and 83 cancer-free patients. The dogs detected 54 of the 55 lung cancer patients as having cancer, detected 28 of the 31 breast cancer patients, and gave only three false-positive results (detecting cancer in people who didn't have it).
