HESI A2 Vocabulary Quizlet Questions

Question 1 of 5

Which word is not spelled correctly in the context of this sentence? 'The nurse went from room to room looking for the missing patient.'

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.

Question 2 of 5

Select the meaning of the word 'initial' in the sentence: 'The doctor made an initial examination of the patient.'

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: First. In the context of the sentence, 'initial' refers to the first examination conducted by the doctor. This term signifies the beginning or introductory stage of the examination process. The other choices are incorrect because: A: Complete - 'Initial' does not imply completion but rather the starting point. C: Incomplete - 'Initial' does not suggest incompleteness but rather the first step. D: Discharge - 'Initial' does not relate to discharge but rather the first action taken in the examination.

Question 3 of 5

Place the four words in alphabetical order.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct order is: Assemble, assembly, assembled, assembling. First, we arrange "Assemble" before "Assembly" as it comes before nouns alphabetically. Then, we place "assembled" before "assembling" as it is the past tense verb. Lastly, "assembling" goes after "assembled" because it is the present participle form. Choice A is incorrect as it places "assembling" before "assembled." Choice B is incorrect as it places "assembly" before "assembling." Choice D is incorrect as it places "assembled" before "assembly."

Question 4 of 5

Which phrase is NOT used correctly 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."

Question 5 of 5

What is the meaning of 'belligerent'?

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C: pugnacious. Belligerent means hostile and aggressive, which aligns with the definition of pugnacious. Retired (A) means no longer working, sardonic (B) means mocking, and acclimated (D) means adjusted to new conditions, none of which capture the aggressive nature of 'belligerent'.
