HESI A2 Vocabulary Quizlet

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: ingest. Ingest means to take into the body, usually by swallowing. "Congest" means to block or fill up, not related to intake. "Collect" means to gather or accumulate, not specifically related to taking into the body. "Suppress" means to restrain or prevent, not related to intake. Therefore, B is the correct answer as it directly relates to the action of taking something into the body.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: A. In the sentence, "A dog barked loudly," the article "A" is grammatically correct as it precedes the singular noun "dog." The other choices do not need correction as they are grammatically sound in the sentence. "About it" is a prepositional phrase, "With" is a preposition, and "Made" is the past tense verb. Therefore, the only word that needs correction for proper grammar is choice B, "A."

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: offspring. Progeny means descendants or offspring. In the sentence, 'Progeny is a term used to describe a person's ____,' the term 'progeny' refers to a person's offspring. The word 'creditors' (choice A) refers to individuals or entities to whom money is owed, not related to progeny. 'Hereditary disease' (choice C) refers to a genetic condition passed down through generations, not synonymous with progeny. 'Health status' (choice D) refers to an individual's overall health condition, unrelated to progeny. Hence, choice B is the correct answer.

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D. "Went from" contains a typographical error. The correct phrase should be "went to" instead of "went from." The preposition "to" is used to indicate the destination or endpoint of an action, while "from" indicates the origin or starting point. Therefore, in this context, "went to" is the appropriate choice. A: "To a" is grammatically correct and does not contain a typographical error. B: "Very strong" is also grammatically correct and does not contain a typographical error. C: "Being" is a valid word and does not contain a typographical error.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: form. In the context of the sentence, the word "form" is not spelled correctly. The sentence describes a nurse looking for a missing patient, so the correct spelling should be "room" instead of "form." The other choices (A: patient, C: nurse, D: missing) are spelled correctly and are relevant to the context of the sentence. Therefore, the word "form" is the only one that is misspelled in this context.
