Answer to Question 1

C
Feedback:
The mitochondria can take carbohydrates, fats, and proteins from the cytoplasm and make ATP via the Krebs cycle, which depends on oxygen. Cells use the ATP to maintain homeostasis, produce proteins, and carry out specific functions. NADH + H+ is an end-product of glycolysis. Vitamins are not used to make ATP and neither is water.

Answer to Question 2

D
Feedback:
Adverse effects of thiopental include emergence delirium, headache, restlessness, anxiety, cardiovascular depression, respiratory depression, apnea, salivation, hiccups, and rashes. Tachycardia, tachypnea, and urinary retention are not usually associated with this drug.

Hypertension is a silent killer because it is deadly and has no significant early symptoms. The danger from hypertension is the extra load on the heart, which can lead to hypertensive heart disease and kidney damage. This occurs without any major symptoms until the high blood pressure becomes extreme. Regular blood pressure checks are an important method of catching hypertension before it can kill you.
