HESI A2 Vocabulary Quizlet

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: unnecessary. The word 'unnecessary' is misspelled as 'unneccessary' in the sentence. The correct spelling should have only one 'c' instead of two. The other choices are spelled correctly - A: physician, C: explain, and D: procedure. 'Physician' refers to a medical doctor, 'explain' means to make something clear, and 'procedure' is a series of steps to be followed. Thus, the misspelling in choice B makes it the correct answer.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C: Unseemly. 'Untoward' in this context means inappropriate or improper, which aligns with the negative impact the person's actions had on the nurse. It suggests behavior that is unfavorable or not socially acceptable. A: Violent is incorrect as 'untoward' does not imply physical aggression. B: Casual is incorrect as 'untoward' conveys a sense of seriousness or impropriety, not nonchalant behavior. D: Capricious is incorrect as 'untoward' does not indicate erratic or impulsive behavior, but rather behavior that is unsuitable or inappropriate.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is "B: That" because it is used to introduce a defining relative clause, providing essential information about the people who were there that night. "Whom" is incorrect as it is used for objects, not subjects. "Which" is incorrect because it is used for things, not people. "Whose" is incorrect as it indicates possession, not the relationship between the people and the night. In this context, "that" is the most appropriate relative pronoun to refer to the people.

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D: There. In the sentence, "They're going to the mall to pick up their uniforms for their coach," the word "there" is used incorrectly. "There" indicates a location, while in this context, it should be "their" to show possession. "Their" is the correct possessive form for the word "uniforms." "They're" is a contraction for "they are" and is used correctly in the sentence. "Going" is also used correctly as the verb describing the action. Thus, "there" is the only word that is not used correctly in the sentence.

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The correct contraction for 'will not' is A: Won't. The contraction 'won't' is formed by combining 'will' and 'not', where the 'o' from 'not' replaces the 'i' in 'will'. This contraction is widely accepted and commonly used in English language. B: Willn't is not a standard contraction and is not grammatically correct. C: Wouldn't is a contraction for 'would not', not 'will not'. D: Will'nt is a non-standard and incorrect form of contraction.
