Question 1 of 5
What does line “A” point to?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A: Lymphatic vessels. Line "A" typically points to lymphatic vessels because they play a crucial role in draining excess fluid and waste products from tissues. They help maintain fluid balance and immunity. The other choices are incorrect because the pampiniform plexus is a network of veins in the spermatic cord, the internal spermatic fascia is a layer of connective tissue surrounding the spermatic cord, and the spermatic cord is a structure containing blood vessels, nerves, and ducts that support the testes. These structures are closely related anatomically but serve different functions compared to lymphatic vessels.
Question 2 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 3 of 5
Removal of internal organs from a body cavity
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Exenteration involves the removal of internal organs from a body cavity, often performed in cases of advanced cancer or severe infection. This procedure is extensive, removing multiple organs or structures within a body cavity. Conization is a surgical procedure to remove a cone-shaped piece of tissue, typically from the cervix. Dissection involves cutting through tissues for examination or study, not necessarily removing organs. Cauterization is the process of burning tissue to stop bleeding or remove unwanted tissue, not specifically related to removal of organs from a body cavity. Therefore, the correct answer is B because it specifically describes the removal of internal organs from a body cavity.
Question 4 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 5 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.
