Question 1 of 5
The party who brings a civil suit in a court of law is called a
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: In civil law, the plaintiff is the party who initiates a lawsuit, seeking remedy for a wrong. 'Plaintiff,' is correct because it identifies this role, as defined in civil procedure (e.g., Federal Rules of Civil Procedure). 'Lawyer,' represents, not brings, the suit. 'Defendant,' is the party sued. 'Nurse,' is irrelevant unless specified as the plaintiff. The plaintiff's position as the accuser in cases like negligence suits against a nurse distinguishes it, making C the accurate answer, grounded in legal tradition.
Question 2 of 5
Which of the following is not correct about a scholarly literature review.
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: A scholarly literature review aims for depth but not necessarily exhaustiveness. 'The review is exhaustive and comprehensive,' is not correct because reviews are selective, focusing on relevant studies, per research standards (e.g., Booth's Systematic Reviews). 'Secondary sources are not most preferred,' is true; primary sources are favored. 'Journals and theses are good sources,' is accurate, offering credible data. 'It helps to identify strength and weakness,' is true, assessing prior work. Exhaustiveness is impractical and less critical than relevance, making A the false statement.
Question 3 of 5
One of the following is not a descriptive study
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: Descriptive studies describe phenomena without manipulating variables. 'Comparative study,' is correct as not purely descriptive; it often infers differences or causality (e.g., Polit & Beck), unlike the others. 'Correlational study,' describes relationships. 'Cross sectional study,' captures a snapshot. 'Case study,' details a single case. Comparative studies' analytical bent distinguishes D as the exception.

Question 5 of 5
The immune response that involves T-Lymphocytes is referred to as
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Cell-mediated immunity involves T-lymphocytes targeting infected cells and coordinating responses, distinct from antibody-based defenses. 'Cell-mediated immunity,' is correct, as per immunology texts like Janeway's Immunobiology, highlighting T-cells' cytotoxic and helper roles. 'Humoral immunity,' relies on B-cells and antibodies. 'Innate immunity,' is non-specific, involving phagocytes, not T-cells primarily. 'Passive immunity,' transfers antibodies, not cellular action. T-cells' direct involvement in cell-mediated processes—like killing virus-infected cells—makes B the accurate answer, foundational to adaptive immunity's cellular arm.
