Question 1 of 5
Amniotic fluid index of 18 cm in the 3rd trimester is interpreted as:
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The correct answer is B: Normal amniotic fluid volume. An amniotic fluid index of 18 cm in the 3rd trimester is considered within the normal range (5-25 cm). This level indicates adequate amniotic fluid for fetal development and is not indicative of hydrops fetalis (A), reduced amniotic fluid volume (C), or increased amniotic fluid volume (D). It is crucial to monitor amniotic fluid levels as deviations from the normal range can impact fetal well-being.
Question 2 of 5
The olfactory nerves go through the ______ to enter the cranial cavity:
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The correct answer is B: Cribriform plate. The olfactory nerves pass through the cribriform plate, which is a part of the ethmoid bone located in the anterior cranial fossa. This structure contains numerous small perforations that allow the olfactory nerve fibers to pass through and enter the cranial cavity, specifically the olfactory bulb. The other choices, A, C, and D, are incorrect because the foramen ovale is located in the sphenoid bone and transmits the mandibular nerve, the foramen spinosum transmits the middle meningeal artery, and the superior orbital fissure transmits structures like the oculomotor nerve, trochlear nerve, and ophthalmic nerve, but not the olfactory nerves.
