The student nurse asks the nursing instructor why he needs to take anatomy and physiology, as
well as microbiology, when he only wants to learn about pharmacology. What is the best
response by the instructor?


1. "Because pharmacology is an outgrowth of those subjects."


2. "You must learn all, since those subjects, as well as pharmacology, are part of the
curriculum."


3. "Knowledge of all those subjects will prepare you to provide the best patient care,
including the administration of medications."


4. "Because an understanding of those subjects is essential to understanding pharmacology."


Correct Answer: 4


Rationale 1: Pharmacology is an outgrowth of anatomy, physiology, and microbiology, but this
is not the most complete reason for the nurse to learn them.


Rationale 2: The nurse must learn anatomy, physiology, and microbiology to understand
pharmacology, not because they are part of the curriculum.


Rationale 3: Knowledge of anatomy, physiology, and microbiology prepares the nurse to
understand pharmacology, not to provide care such as administration of medications.


Rationale 4: It is essential for the nurse to have a broad knowledge base of many sciences in
order to learn pharmacology.


Global Rationale: It is essential for the nurse to have a broad knowledge base of many sciences
in order to learn pharmacology. The nurse must learn anatomy, physiology, and microbiology to
understand pharmacology, not because they are part of the curriculum. Pharmacology is an
