Question 2 of 5
A patient who is infected with hookworms produces signs and symptoms of anemia. Which of the following can be seen in the peripheral blood smear of the patient?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Hookworm infection causes iron deficiency anemia due to chronic blood loss. Peripheral blood smears may show microcytic, hypochromic RBCs and occasionally basophilic stippling (B), which can occur in severe anemia or lead poisoning (less common here but possible). Howell-Jolly bodies (A) indicate asplenia, target cells (C) thalassemia or liver disease, spherocytes (D) hereditary spherocytosis, and Pappenheimer bodies (E) sideroblastic anemia—none are specific to hookworm-induced iron deficiency, but B is most plausible.

Question 4 of 5
The male reproductive system is made up of the following structures, EXCEPT:
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The male reproductive system includes the prostate, testicles, and spermatic ducts, which are all involved in producing, storing, or transporting sperm and seminal fluids. Vestibular bulbs, however, are part of the female reproductive anatomy, located near the clitoris and vagina, and play no role in male reproduction. Thus, they are the exception.
