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 correct order of words to fit in the sentence structure: 'The nursing ___ put the Band- ___ on the wound to ___ the nurse.'

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct order is B: aide, aid, aid. 1. "The nursing aide": 'aide' refers to a person who assists, fitting the context of a nursing professional. 2. "put the Band-aid": 'Band-aid' is a brand of adhesive bandages, used to cover wounds. 3. "on the wound to aid the nurse": 'aid' means to help or assist, making sense in the context of helping the nurse. Other choices have incorrect word order or use of words not fitting the context.

Question 3 of 5

Select the meaning of the word 'dilation' in the sentence: 'The laboring mother was at 50% dilation.'

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: Cervical opening. In the context of labor, dilation refers to the opening of the cervix to allow the baby to pass through during childbirth. Blood pressure (A), birth process (C), and exhumation (D) are not related to the specific medical term dilation in this context.

Question 4 of 5

What is the best description of the word 'insidious'?

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A: stealthy. 'Insidious' means proceeding in a gradual, subtle way but with harmful effects. This aligns with the definition of stealthy. The word 'deadly' (B) is close but doesn't capture the gradual aspect. 'Collapsed' (C) and 'new' (D) are completely unrelated and do not fit the definition of 'insidious.'

Question 5 of 5

What is the correct pronoun to complete the sentence?

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The correct pronoun to complete the sentence is "Her" because it is used as an object pronoun to refer to a female person. In this context, the pronoun is likely replacing the name of a female individual. "Hers" is incorrect as it is a possessive pronoun, not suitable for the context. Choices C and D, "Best" and "More greatest," are adjectives and not pronouns, making them unsuitable for completing the sentence.
