Answer to Question 1

A
Feedback:
An allergic reaction produces contraction of the smooth muscle in the bronchi and bronchioles. The patient will have stimulation, not suppression, of the vagus nerve endings. The patient will have increased, not decreased, permeability of the veins and capillaries. The patient will have increased secretion from the mucous glands, producing nasal congestion.

Answer to Question 2

A
Feedback:
Defecation is normally stimulated by movements and reflexes in the gastrointestinal tract. It does not result from changes in osmolarity, CNS stimulation, or the release of enzymes.
