Answer 1

The bioavailability % varies depending on the route of administration: IV, IM, and SQ have 100% bioavailability, while PO, RECTAL, Inhalation, and Transdermal have <100% bioavailability.

Step-by-step explanation:

The bioavailability % varies depending on the route of administration:

• IV (intravenous) - 100% bioavailability
• IM (intramuscular) - 100% bioavailability
• SQ (subcutaneous) - 100% bioavailability
• PO (oral) - <100% bioavailability
• RECTAL (rectal) - <100% bioavailability
• Inhalation - <100% bioavailability
• Transdermal - <100% bioavailability
