• A. Present on two sides
• B. Available for exercise
• C. Affecting the left side

Correct answer: B

Rationale: Redundancy means having more than is needed, making 'Surplus' the correct choice. The term does not relate to 'Deficiency' (lack), 'Delicate' (fragile), or 'Abundance' (plenty). In the context of this question, Redundancy refers to an excess or surplus of something.

3. Which term refers to someone who has come to settle in the United States?

• A. Immigrate
• B. Migrate
• C. Immigrant
• D. Emigrant

Correct answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is 'C: Immigrant.' An immigrant is a person who comes to live permanently in a foreign country, such as the United States. Choice A, 'Immigrate,' refers to the action of entering a foreign country to live there. Choice B, 'Migrate,' means to move from one place to another. Choice D, 'Emigrant,' is someone who leaves their own country to settle permanently in another.

4. A patient who is querulous might be guilty of ______.

• A. Stealing
• B. Questioning
• C. Overeating
• D. Complaining

Correct answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D, 'Complaining.' 'Querulous' means complaining in a petulant or whining manner. This word describes someone who is constantly finding fault and is difficult to please. Choices A, B, and C are incorrect because 'querulous' specifically refers to complaining behavior, not stealing, questioning, or overeating.

5. A restricted diet is ___________.

• A. low in fat
• B. vegetarian
• C. banned
• D. limited

Correct answer: D

Rationale: A restricted diet is limited in some way, such as reducing the intake of certain foods, food groups, or nutrients. It may involve limitations on quantity, frequency, or types of foods consumed. This restriction could be related to health factors, allergies, sensitivities, ethical reasons, or personal preferences. Choice A, 'low in fat,' is too specific and does not encompass the broad concept of restriction in a diet. Choice B, 'vegetarian,' refers to a specific dietary pattern but does not necessarily indicate restriction. Choice C, 'banned,' is incorrect as it implies a complete prohibition rather than limitation, which is characteristic of a restricted diet.
