Question 1 of 5
This is an inflammation of the fallopian tubes and the pelvic organs secondary to infections with gonococcus or chlamydia
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Step 1: Pelvic inflammatory disease (PID) is an infection of the fallopian tubes and pelvic organs. Step 2: PID is commonly caused by gonococcus or chlamydia infections. Step 3: Ovarian cyst (A) is a fluid-filled sac on the ovary, not related to infections. Step 4: Endometriosis (B) is the growth of endometrial tissue outside the uterus, not typically associated with infections. Step 5: Cervicitis (D) is an inflammation of the cervix, not involving the fallopian tubes and pelvic organs.
Question 2 of 5
Twins resulting from the fertilization of separate ova by separate sperm cell are called:
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is C: Fraternal twins. Fraternal twins result from the fertilization of separate ova by separate sperm cells, leading to siblings who share 50% of their genetic material. This is different from identical twins (choice D), which result from the fertilization of a single egg by a single sperm cell, leading to siblings who share 100% of their genetic material. Choices A and B are incorrect as they do not accurately describe the process of fraternal twinning. Paternal twins (choice A) and maternal twins (choice B) are not commonly used terms in genetics to describe types of twinning.
Question 3 of 5
_________________ is a connective tissue that connects a muscle to a bone.
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: I'm sorry, but the correct answer provided in the question is incorrect. The connective tissue that connects a muscle to a bone is called a tendon, not bursae. Tendons are fibrous tissues that transmit the mechanical force generated by muscles to bones, allowing movement. Ligaments connect bones to bones, bursae are fluid-filled sacs that reduce friction between tissues, and synovial membrane lines joint cavities and produces synovial fluid for lubrication. Therefore, the correct answer is A: Tendon.
Question 4 of 5
A thin single flat bone that forms the lower portion of the nasal septum is
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The correct answer is D: Vomer. The vomer is a thin, single flat bone that forms the lower portion of the nasal septum. It articulates with the sphenoid, ethmoid, and maxillary bones. The lacrimal bones (A) are small bones forming part of the eye socket. Nasal bones (B) are two small bones that form the bridge of the nose. The inferior nasal concha (C) is a separate bone located in the nasal cavity, not part of the nasal septum. Therefore, the vomer is the correct answer as it specifically fits the description given in the question.
Question 5 of 5
The patient was taken to the operating room where an
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The correct answer is D: Reduction. In medical terminology, reduction refers to the process of restoring a dislocated or fractured bone to its normal position. In this context, the patient was likely taken to the operating room for a reduction procedure to realign the affected bone. A: Open - Incorrect because it does not specify the specific procedure being performed. B: Open deduction - Incorrect because "deduction" is not a term commonly used in medical procedures and does not make sense in this context. C: Deduction - Incorrect for the same reasons as B, as deduction is not a relevant medical term in this scenario.
