A report states: “Patients who received a phone call from a nurse after leaving hospital were less likely to return within 30 days than patients who did not.” Which further information would best help show that the calls caused the difference?
A pair of shoes costs $96.00. It is on sale at 30% off, and a sales tax of 6% is added to the sale price. What is the final price P? Round to the nearest cent.
In a course, homework counts 20%, the midterm 30% and the final exam 50% of the grade. A student scores 62% on homework, 64% on the midterm and 85% on the final. What is the course grade G? Round to one decimal place.
Which two regions of the adult spine normally show a lordosis (curve concave towards the back)?
In the femoral triangle, what is the order of the main structures from lateral to medial?
Which protein forms the mesh that stabilises a blood clot?
Why does ketoacidosis typically develop in untreated type 1 diabetes but rarely in type 2?
Which process removes carbon dioxide from the atmosphere?
Redi placed meat in open jars and in jars covered with gauze. Maggots appeared only on meat that flies could reach. What did this show?
A plastic block has a density of 0.8 g/cm³. What happens when it is placed in water (density 1.0 g/cm³)?
What is the correct name of Cu₂O?
Choose the correct verb: “Everyone in the waiting room ___ tired.”
Choose the correct verb: “If you heat ice, it ___.”
Choose the meaning of the word in bold: “The patient was unable to void after surgery.”

Answer: C · He is playing down how badly he is hurt.
Max calls it “just a scratch”, yet he is bleeding badly and can hardly stand, so he is making his injury seem smaller than it is.
Answer: D · Whether patients were randomly chosen to get calls
If patients were randomly assigned to receive calls, other differences would be spread evenly, making it more likely that the calls caused the result.
Answer: P = 71.23 $
Discounts and sales tax: a discount of d% leaves (100 − d)% of the price; a tax of t% adds t% of the discounted price. Work in that order: price × (1 − d/100), then × (1 + t/100). Round money to the nearest cent only at the end.
Answer: G = 74.1 %
Weighted average: when parts count for different percentages, multiply each score by its weight (as a decimal) and add. A plain mean of the scores is only right when every part counts equally.
Answer: D · Cervical and lumbar
The cervical and lumbar regions are lordotic (secondary curves). The thoracic and sacral regions are kyphotic (primary curves).
Answer: D · Femoral nerve, femoral artery, femoral vein
From lateral to medial: nerve, artery, vein, then empty space and lymphatics (NAVEL). This is why the femoral artery pulse lies between the nerve and vein.
Answer: D · Fibrin
Thrombin converts soluble fibrinogen into insoluble fibrin strands, which bind the platelet plug and trap red cells to form a stable clot.
Answer: C · Even low insulin levels suppress lipolysis and ketogenesis
Insulin strongly inhibits lipolysis and hepatic ketone production. In type 1 there is almost no insulin, so fatty acids flood the liver and ketones build up.
Answer: C · Photosynthesis
Plants, algae and some bacteria take in CO₂ during photosynthesis and build it into sugars. Respiration, combustion and decomposition all release CO₂.
Answer: D · Maggots come from eggs laid by flies, not from the meat itself
Redi's experiment showed that maggots did not arise spontaneously from meat. They appeared only where flies could lay eggs, which was early evidence against spontaneous generation.
Answer: A · It floats
An object less dense than the liquid floats. Because 0.8 g/cm³ is less than 1.0 g/cm³, the block floats on water.
Answer: A · Copper(I) oxide
Two copper ions balance one O²⁻ (2−), so each copper is Cu⁺. Transition metal charges are shown with Roman numerals: copper(I) oxide. CuO would be copper(II) oxide.
Answer: C · looks
“Everyone” is singular, so it takes the singular verb “looks”. The phrase “in the waiting room” does not change the subject.
Answer: A · melts
For general truths, the zero conditional uses the present tense in both clauses: “If you heat ice, it melts.”
Answer: A · Pass urine
To void means to urinate (empty the bladder).
