Answer to Question 1

ANS: B, C
Infection with H. pylori and chronic use of NSAIDs are the major causes of duodenal ulcers. Consuming spicy foods, trauma, and antibiotics do not lead to duodenal ulcer disease.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B, C, E
Functional constipation is a type of or primary constipation that is triggered by a low residue diet and low fluid intake. A sedentary lifestyle and lack of regular exercise are other common causes of this type of constipation. Secondary constipation is a result of a pre-existing condition that may be a neurogenic disorder or colon cancer.

Although the Roman numeral for the number 4 has always been taught to have been "IV," according to historians, the ancient Romans probably used "IIII" most of the time. This is partially backed up by the fact that early grandfather clocks displayed IIII for the number 4 instead of IV. Early clockmakers apparently thought that the IIII balanced out the VIII (used for the number 8) on the clock face and that it just looked better.
