1. a physically and psychologically addictive drug that relieves pain is called a/an:

Explanation:

Step1: Analyze question 141

Violation of ethical standards of an association or society can lead to various consequences. Revocation of credential, censorship, and expulsion are common disciplinary actions. A fine is more of a legal - monetary penalty rather than a typical association - based disciplinary measure.

Step2: Analyze question 142

In the metric system, \(1\space L = 1000\space mL\). A gallon and quart are units in the imperial system. A meter is a unit of length.

Step3: Analyze question 143

The dose is \(40\space mg\) twice a day (\(bid\)) for \(10\) days. So the total dose in \(mg\) is \(40\times2\times10=800\space mg\). Given the suspension is \(10\space mg/mL\), the volume \(V=\frac{800\space mg}{10\space mg/mL}=80\space mL\). But if we consider a single - dose calculation (maybe a mis - understanding of the question as unit - dose, if it's per administration): per administration \(40\space mg\), \(V=\frac{40\space mg}{10\space mg/mL} = 4\space mL\)

Step4: Analyze question 144

A transverse plane divides the body into superior (upper) and inferior (lower) segments. The sagittal plane divides into left and right, and the frontal (coronal) plane divides into anterior and posterior.

Step5: Analyze question 145

A narcotic is a drug that is physically and psychologically addictive and can relieve pain. Steroids are for inflammation etc., antibiotics for infections, and antiseptics for external germ - killing.

Answer:

1. B: the revocation of credential, C: censorship, D: expulsion
2. C: liter
3. A: \(4\space ml\) (assuming per - administration unit dose)
4. B: superior and inferior
5. D: narcotic
