Question 4

Question
What is an advantage of the parenteral route of administration?
Answer
  • Easy to administer on unconscious patients
  • Reaches the blood stream first and avoids first pass metabolism

Question 5

Question
What is an advantage of percutaneous administration of drugs?
Answer
  • Easy to administer on unconscious patients
  • Reaches the blood stream first and avoids first pass metabolism

Question 6

Question
Repeated doses of general anaesthetic such as thiopental can cause a fatal dose because of accumulation, or "tissue binding" in adipose tissue.
Answer
  • True
  • False

Question 7

Question
1st pass metabolism describes what phenomenon?
Answer
  • When the concentration of a drug available to the systemic circulation (it's bioavailability) is significantly reduced because it is metabolised by the liver before it reaches the systemic circulation.
  • When the concentration of a drug available to the systemic circulation (it's bioavailability) is significantly increased because it is metabolised by the liver before it reaches the systemic circulation.

Question 8

Question
1st pass metabolism can be useful for activating pre-cursor drugs such as L-dopa into dopamine.
Answer
  • True
  • False

Question 9

Question
Steady state in pharmacology describes what?
Answer
  • Drug absorption = Drug elimination
  • Drug absorption > Drug elimination
  • Drug absorption < Drug elimination

Question 10

Question
What is the plasma half life of a drug?
Answer
  • The time for half of the drug to be eliminated from the blood
  • The time it takes for a drug to lose half of its pharmacological activity

Question 11

Question
What is meant by the hydrophobic effect?
Answer
  • Amino acids with non-polar (hydrophobic) groups arrange themselves on the inside of a protein and vice versa.
  • Amino acids with non-polar (hydrophilic) groups arrange themselves on the inside of a protein and vice versa.
  • Amino acids with polar (hydrophobic) groups arrange themselves on the inside of a protein and vice versa.
  • Amino acids with polar (hydrophilic) groups arrange themselves on the inside of a protein and vice versa.

Question 12

Question
Haemoglobin in sickle cell is dysfunctional as a result of an incorrect hydrophobic effect.
Answer
  • True

What is the primary structure of a protein?
Answer
  • Sequence of amino acids
  • Folding into an alpha helix or beta pleated sheet

Question 14

Question
What is the secondary structure of a protein?
Answer
  • Sequence of amino acids
  • Folding into an alpha helix or beta pleated sheet
  • Folding of a polypeptide chain and addition of prosthetic groups
  • Many polypeptide chains

Question 15

Question
What is the tertiary structure of a protein?
Answer
  • Sequence of amino acids
  • Folding into an alpha helix or beta pleated sheet
  • Folding of a polypeptide chain and addition of prosthetic groups

Question 16

Question
What is the quaternary structure of a protein?
Answer
  • Sequence of amino acids
  • Folding into an alpha helix or beta pleated sheet

Answer
  • True
  • False

Question 26

Question
Prolonged exposure to a drug reduces the bodies response to it.
Answer
