Answer to Question 1

A, B, D
Feedback:
The pancreas, liver, and gallbladder are accessory organs that support the functions of the GI system. The spleen is not involved in digestion and the appendix is a part of the bowel, not an accessory organ.

Answer to Question 2

D
Feedback:
Induction is the period from the beginning of anesthesia until stage 3, or surgical anesthesia, is reached. After induction comes the maintenance phase from stage 3 until the surgical procedure is complete. A slower, more predictable anesthetic, such as a gas anesthetic, may be used to maintain the anesthesia after the patient is in stage 3 . This is followed by the recovery period that begins with the discontinuation of anesthesia. Medullary paralysis is the depth of anesthesia known as stage 4 . Option C is a distracter.

People who have myopia, or nearsightedness, are not able to see objects at a distance but only up close. It occurs when the cornea is either curved too steeply, the eye is too long, or both. This condition is progressive and worsens with time. More than 100 million people in the United States are nearsighted, but only 20% of those are born with the condition. Diet, eye exercise, drug therapy, and corrective lenses can all help manage nearsightedness.
