Answer to Question 1

C
Feedback:
The arteries are muscular, rigid, resistance tubes of the cardiovascular system that carry blood away from the heart. The veins are capacitance tubes that carry blood to the heart. Capillaries connect arteries and veins.

Answer to Question 2

C
Feedback:
Bethanechol is prescribed for nonobstructive urinary retention and neurogenic bladder. The appropriate outcome for this patient would be improved bladder function. This drug causes pupillary constriction and increased secretions. This drug would not increase blood pressure. However, it could cause hypotension in the older patient.

For high blood pressure (hypertension), a new class of drug, called a vasopeptidase blocker (inhibitor), has been developed. It decreases blood pressure by simultaneously dilating the peripheral arteries and increasing the body's loss of salt.

There are major differences in the metabolism of morphine and the illegal drug heroin. Morphine mostly produces its CNS effects through m-receptors, and at k- and d-receptors. Heroin has a slight affinity for opiate receptors. Most of its actions are due to metabolism to active metabolites (6-acetylmorphine, morphine, and morphine-6-glucuronide).

There can actually be a 25-hour time difference between certain locations in the world. The International Date Line passes between the islands of Samoa and American Samoa. It is not a straight line, but "zig-zags" around various island chains. Therefore, Samoa and nearby islands have one date, while American Samoa and nearby islands are one day behind. Daylight saving time is used in some islands, but not in others—further shifting the hours out of sync with natural time.
