HESI A2 Vocabulary Quizlet

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: meat-eating. A carnivore is an animal that primarily feeds on meat. This is the correct answer as it directly relates to the definition of carnivore. Choice A (hungry) is incorrect as it does not define what a carnivore is, but rather describes a state of appetite. Choice C (infected) and D (demented) are completely unrelated to the term 'carnivore' and do not make sense in the context of the question.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: Volatile. In this context, 'labile' means prone to change rapidly or unpredictably. The child's condition is described as labile, indicating instability. 'Fevered' (A) refers to having a fever, not capturing the changing nature. 'Stomach' (C) and 'Vision' (D) are unrelated to the context of the child's condition. Hence, 'volatile' best fits the meaning of 'labile' in this sentence.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C: cause it to happen. When you implement something, you are taking action to make it happen or become a reality. You are executing a plan or process to achieve a specific goal or result. Choices A, B, and D are incorrect because preventing something, emphasizing importance, or following from beginning to end do not capture the essence of implementation, which is about putting a plan into action to bring about a desired outcome.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C: Laid. In this sentence, 'laid' is the past tense form of the verb 'lay'. The sentence requires a past tense verb to match the context of placing the package on the table. 'Layed' in choice A is incorrect as it is a common misspelling of 'laid'. 'Drop' in choice B is incorrect as it does not fit the context of placing something carefully. 'Lay' in choice D is the present tense form of the verb and does not match the past tense needed in the sentence.

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A: Do to. This phrase is incorrect because the correct phrase is "due to," which means caused by or resulting from. "Do to" is not a grammatically correct phrase. The other choices B, C, and D are used correctly in the sentence. Choice B, "Stay was," is a complete phrase indicating a past action. Choice C, "Client's," is the possessive form of the noun "client." Choice D, "Superinfection," is a medical term describing an additional infection on top of an existing one. Therefore, the only incorrect phrase in the sentence is A, "Do to."
