Answer to Question 1

A
Feedback:
First-generation cephalosporins are largely effective against gram-positive bacteria and include cefadroxil (generic), cefazolin (Zolicef), and cephalexin (Keflex). Second-and third-generation cephalosporins are less effective against gram-positive bacteria. Cefoxitin (generic) is a second-generation cephalosporin and cefotaxime (Claforan) and cefazolin (Zolicef) are third-generation cephalosporins.

Answer to Question 2

C
Feedback:
The cholinergic system uses acetylcholine as its neurotransmitter. A calcium ion is an electrolyte circulating in the serum. Acetylcholinesteras e is an enzyme that breaks down acetylcholine. Monoamine oxidase is an enzyme that breaks down the neurotransmitter norepinephrine.
