Answer to Question 1

A
Feedback:
Like estrogen, testosterone enters the cell and reacts with a cytoplasmic receptor site to influence mRNA activity, resulting in the production of proteins for cell structure or function.

Answer to Question 2

C
Feedback:
Flumazenil is an antidote to benzodiazepine overdose and is administered to reverse the effects of benzodiazepines when used for anesthesia. Phenobarbital, a barbiturate, would further depress the body functions of this patient. Dexmedetomidine is a new hypnotic drug used in the intensive care unit for mechanically ventilated patients. Ramelteon is also new; it is used as a hypnotic. Adverse effects of this drug include depression and suicidal ideation.
