Answer: b. 0.75 mL
Explanation:
The physician ordered FRAGMIN 7,500 units and the vials come with FRAGMIN 10,000 international units/mL. This means that for every 1 mL, there are FRAGMIN 10,000 units.

Answer:
The correct answer is the duodenum.
Explanation:
Pancreatic juice is an alkaline fluid which contains important enzymes for the digestion of proteins, carbohydrates and fats.
Pancreatic juice is secreted by the pancreas when food enters the stomach which is released into the "duodenum" of the small intestine. The pancreatic juice enters duodenum through a pancreatic duct which joins with the bile duct coming from the liver and form "ampulla of Vater" in the duodenum.
Pancreatic juice helps in digestion of carbohydrates, proteins and fats as it contains pro-enzymes and enzymes like trypsinogen, chymotrypsinogen, lipase and many more. It also makes the acidic stomach solution alkaline due to the presence of HCO₃.
Thus, the duodenum is the correct answer.
