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.
