1. "Early researchers used themselves as test subjects."
n n n n n n
2. "A primary goal of pharmacology is to prevent disease."
n n n n n n n n
3. "Penicillin is one of the initial drugs isolated from a natural source."
n n n n n n n n n n n
4. "Pharmacologists began synthesizing drugs in the laboratory in the nineteenth century." n n n n n n n n n n
Answer: 1
n n
Explanation:
1. Some early researchers, like Friedrich Serturner, used themselves as test subjects.
n n n n n n n n n n
2. An early goal of pharmacology was to relieve human suffering.
n n n n n n n n n
3. Initial drugs isolated from complex mixtures included morphine, colchicine, curare, and c
n n n n n n n n n n n
ocaine, but not penicillin.
n n n n
4. By the twentieth century, pharmacologists could synthesize drugs in the laboratory.

,2) A student nurse asks a nursing instructor why anatomy and physiology as well as
n n n n n n n n n n n n n
microbiology are required courses when the student only wants to learn about p
n n n n n n n n n n n n n
harmacology. What is the best response by the instructor?
n n n n n n n n n
1. "Because pharmacology is an outgrowth of those subjects." n n n n n n n
2. "You must learn all, since all of those subjects are part of the curriculum."
n n n n n n n n n n n n n
3. "Knowledge of all those subjects will prepare you to administer medication." n n n n n n n n n n
4. "An understanding of those subjects is essential to understand pharmacology."
n n n n n n n n n
Answer: 4
n n
Explanation:
1. Pharmacology is an outgrowth of anatomy, physiology, and microbiology, but this is not t n n n n n n n n n n n n n
he most essential reason for the nurse to learn them.
n n n n n n n n n n
2. The nurse must learn anatomy, physiology, and microbiology to understand
n n n n n n n n n
pharmacology, not because they are part of the curriculum.
n n n n n n n n n
3. Knowledge of anatomy, physiology, and microbiology prepares the nurse to understand
n n n n n n n n n n
pharmacology, not to provide care such as administration of medications.
n n n n n n n n n n
4. It is essential for the nurse to have a broad knowledge base of many sciences in order to le
