Question 1 of 5

Enzymatic reactions can be expressed in which of the following chemical notations?

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C: E + S = P. This notation represents the interaction between an enzyme (E) and a substrate (S) resulting in a product (P). Enzymes facilitate chemical reactions by binding to substrates and converting them into products. Choice A is incorrect because it does not include the enzyme in the reaction. Choice B is incorrect as it involves two substrates binding to the enzyme, not a substrate converting to a product. Choice D is incorrect as it shows two substrates reacting to form a product without involvement of an enzyme. Thus, choice C accurately represents the process of enzymatic reactions involving enzymes, substrates, and products.

Question 2 of 5

Which of the following drugs is not used to treat influenza

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: Acyclovir is an antiviral drug used to treat herpes infections, not influenza. Tamiflu, Amantadine, and Relenza are all antiviral drugs commonly used to treat influenza. Acyclovir works by inhibiting the replication of herpes viruses, so it is not effective against the influenza virus. Therefore, the correct answer is A.

Question 3 of 5

Anti-influenza drugs that target the neuraminidase are;

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D: Relenza and Tamiflu. Both Relenza and Tamiflu are anti-influenza drugs that target the neuraminidase enzyme of the influenza virus, thereby inhibiting its replication and spread. Maxi Grip (A) is not an anti-influenza drug, Theraflu (B) contains different active ingredients, and Amantadine and Rimantadine (C) target a different viral protein, M2 ion channel. Therefore, choices A, B, and C are incorrect as they do not specifically target neuraminidase for influenza treatment.

Question 4 of 5

Bacteria that have been identified as frequently responsible for nonsexually transmitted infections of the reproductive system include:

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A (Escherichia coli, Gardnerella vaginalis, and Staphylococcus aureus) because they are known to commonly cause nonsexually transmitted infections of the reproductive system. Escherichia coli can cause urinary tract infections that can ascend to the reproductive system. Gardnerella vaginalis is associated with bacterial vaginosis, a common infection of the vagina. Staphylococcus aureus can cause infections in the reproductive system through various means. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect: B: Streptococcus faecalis, Klebsiella oxytoca, and Serratia marcescens are not commonly associated with reproductive system infections. C: Clostridium tetani and Bacillus cereus are not typically involved in reproductive system infections. D: Neisseria gonorrhoeae causes sexually transmitted infections, Helicobacter pylori causes gastrointestinal issues, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa is more

Question 5 of 5

Natural active immunity occurs during infection or disease. It is active because lymphocytes are activated by antigens or pathogen's surface

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: Rationale: Natural active immunity is indeed active because it involves the activation of lymphocytes by antigens during infection or disease. This process leads to the production of memory cells for long-lasting protection. This distinguishes it from passive immunity, where antibodies are transferred rather than produced by the individual's immune system. Therefore, choice A is correct. Choice B is incorrect because it contradicts the nature of natural active immunity. Choice C is incorrect as the statement is always true for natural active immunity. Choice D is incorrect as there is a correct answer among the given choices.
