Correct Answer is ["1100"]

Explanation

The correct answer is 1100.

Calculation: The current time is 0700 and there are 300 mL remaining in the bag. The IV is infusing at a rate of 75 mL/hr. Therefore, 300 mL ÷ 75 mL/hr = 4 hours. Adding 4 hours to the current time of 0700 gives 1100.

A. There are no chambers. B. Large chambers called ventricles. C. Small chambers called ventricles. D. Large chambers called the atrium.

Correct Answer is B

Explanation

Choice A rationale:

This statement is incorrect because the heart has four chambers: two atria and two ventricles.

Choice B rationale:

This statement is correct. The heart has two large chambers called ventricles that pump blood out of the heart.

Choice C rationale:

This statement is incorrect because the ventricles are the larger chambers of the heart, not the smaller ones.

Choice D rationale:

This statement is incorrect because the atria are the smaller chambers of the heart, not the larger ones.
