serous gram-negative infections resistnat to other Beta-lactams with increased
activity against Pseudomonas and other gram-positive organsims
, 5-FU - correct answerpyimidine analog bioactivatede to 5F-dUMP which covalent
compelxes folic acid, thus inhbiting thymdiylate synthase- decrased dTMP and
thus decreased DNA synthesis

A permissive effect - correct answercortisol exerts a permissive effect on many
hormones to help improve the response to a variety of stressors.
A.2.R.B. - correct answer-Angiotensin 2 Receptor Blockers block Angiotensin 2
enzymes from specific receptor sites
-avoiding Angiotensin 2 activity helps prohibit vasoconstriction
-usually have the suffix "ARTAN"
