2 - yes
4 - no
17 - That depends on how "zero tolerance" is defined by the school or district or state.
29 - I see two possible correct answers for this one.
4. Bad question. there are some countries which sell antibiotics over the counter (Vietnam, China), and in the US bacitracin zinc, polymyxin B sulfate, and neomycin sulfate with suitable anesthetic are allowable OTC. So technially, your answer is correct, however I suspect your text/teacher didn't mean it technically. There is a better answer.
4- C?
And still stuck on 17..

17. is probably true. As Writeacher stated, these laws vary from one state and municipality to another. The key words are CAN BE arrested.
Thank you Ms.Sue

2. Yes, you are correct. The answer is c. stimulant. Stimulant medication, such as Adderall or Ritalin, is commonly prescribed for individuals with ADHD to increase alertness and improve focus and attention.
To arrive at this answer, you can narrow down the options by understanding the characteristics of ADHD medication. ADHD medication works by increasing certain chemicals in the brain that regulate attention and impulse control. Stimulants are a specific type of medication that help increase alertness and arousal in individuals with ADHD. By understanding the purpose of the medicine and the common treatment for ADHD, you can identify the correct answer.
4. No, the correct answer is not a. Analgesics and antibiotics. The correct answer is c. Antacids and antihistamines. Over-the-counter drugs are medications that can be purchased without a prescription from a doctor. Analgesics are pain relievers, antibiotics are used to treat bacterial infections, and hormones and stimulants are typically prescription medications. Antacids and antihistamines, on the other hand, are often available over-the-counter for the treatment of heartburn and allergies, respectively.
To find the correct answer, you need to understand what "over-the-counter" means and have a basic understanding of common medications that are available without a prescription. This knowledge will help you eliminate the incorrect options and choose the correct one.
17. No, the statement is false. When it comes to zero tolerance laws, typically related to issues like alcohol, drugs, or weapons, teens who are caught violating these laws can face legal consequences, such as being detained, fined, or having their driving privileges suspended, depending on the specific violation. However, being arrested is not a guarantee in every case. The exact consequences can vary depending on the jurisdiction and the circumstances of the offense.
To determine the accuracy of the statement, you need to understand what zero tolerance laws are and how they are enforced. Zero tolerance laws typically involve strict policies that do not allow any level of tolerance for certain behaviors or substances. By understanding the purpose and nature of zero tolerance laws, you can identify that the statement is false.
29. No, the correct answer is not d. dizziness and headaches. The correct answer is a. mild hallucinations. Glue and paint thinner are classified as inhalants, and inhalant abuse can result in a range of effects, including mild hallucinations, euphoria, and altered perceptions. Dizziness and headaches are also possible symptoms, but mild hallucinations are a more specific and characteristic effect of inhalant abuse.
To arrive at the correct answer, you need to be familiar with the effects of different substances and their classifications. Knowing that glue and paint thinner are inhalants and understanding their potential effects will help you choose the correct answer.
