Im sure that any drug could affect a pregnancy test.

Using meth should not cause a false negative pregnancy test result. Pregnancy tests detect the presence of the hormone hCG in urine, which is produced during pregnancy. Drug use should not interfere with this process.
False. In an ionic compound, the positive ion (typically a metal) is usually named first, followed by the negative ion (typically a nonmetal).
False. The most abundant negative ion in extracellular fluid is chloride, not calcium. Calcium is usually found as a positively charged ion in extracellular fluid.
Poor specificity would likely cause a false positive reaction between an inoculating loop and hydrogen peroxide, as this would indicate a non-specific reaction occurring. In contrast, poor sensitivity would not directly cause a false positive in this context, rather it may result in a false negative if the test is not able to detect the presence of a specific target.
Deodorant or hairspray typically do not contain alcohol in amounts significant enough to cause a false positive on an alcohol blood test. However, using an alcohol-based mouthwash shortly before a test could potentially lead to a false positive due to the alcohol content.
False readings in hair drug testing can occur due to external contamination from drug residues in the environment or from cosmetic products. However, if you know you have been using drugs and get a negative result, it could be due to various reasons such as low drug concentrations or drug use occurring outside the detection window of the test. It is essential to follow the proper specimen collection and testing protocols to minimize the risk of false readings.
