2020EXAM WITH MULTIPLE CHOICE OF QUESTIONS AND CORRECT
ANSWERS ALREADY GRADED A+ AND 100% GUARANTEE PASS
1. When assessing a patient's cranial nerve function, which cranial nerve is
responsible for the lateral gaze?
A. CN III (Oculomotor)
B. CN IV (Trochlear)
C. CN VI (Abducens) ✅
D. CN XII (Hypoglossal)
Rationale: Cranial nerve VI, the abducens nerve, innervates the lateral
rectus muscle responsible for lateral gaze. Assessment involves asking the
patient to look outward to the side.
2. A patient is described as "obtunded" during a neurological assessment.

D. Patient is drowsy but easily aroused
Rationale: Obtunded is a level of consciousness where the patient opens
their eyes and looks at you but responds slowly and is somewhat confused.
Alertness and interest in the environment are decreased.
3. During percussion, a dull note is elicited over a lung lobe. What does this
finding most likely result from?
A. Increased density of lung tissue ✅
B. Hyperinflation of the lungs
C. Presence of air in the pleural space
D. Normal lung resonance
