Answer to Question 1

D
Feedback:
Because phentermine inhibits the reuptake of both serotonin and norepinephrine, it directly affects physiologic factors related to obesity.

Answer to Question 2

B
Feedback:
Antidiuretic hormone is also called vasopressin and is released in response to blood loss. Luteinizing hormone is important in ovulation. Oxytocin functions in childbirth and lactation. Melanocyte-stimulating hormone plays a role in skin pigmentation.

Although the Roman numeral for the number 4 has always been taught to have been "IV," according to historians, the ancient Romans probably used "IIII" most of the time. This is partially backed up by the fact that early grandfather clocks displayed IIII for the number 4 instead of IV. Early clockmakers apparently thought that the IIII balanced out the VIII (used for the number 8) on the clock face and that it just looked better.
