    I know the answer. but I was thinking from a nurses point of view is it best to use the smaller measurment because 5ml=1 tsp or use the milliliter dropper... Couldn't it be the first one, a and d.. both or no..

    Hard to answer with what you put.. I have no clue what Dropper A,B,C, or D hold.. You didn't add ml or cc's or any measurement beside them.

    no the answers are written just like that. im taking a dosage class online. which really isn't very helpful but it's okay. I guess dropper A. has the measurement of 2.0 ml. and the dropper d says 1 tsp measurement. im guessing it's d because 5 ml= 1 teaspoon. and i would use the teaspoon measurement.
