Answer to Question 1

D
Feedback
A Both the spleen and mucous membranes are secondary organs of the immune
system that act as filters to remove debris and antigens and foster contact with T
lymphocytes.
B Gut-associated lymphoid tissue is a secondary organ of the immune system. This
tissue filters antigens entering the gastrointestinal tract.
C The skin and lymph nodes are secondary organs of the immune system.
D The thymus controls cell-mediated immunity (cells that mature into T
lymphocytes). The bone marrow controls humoral immunity (stem cells for B
lymphocytes).

Answer to Question 2

D
Feedback
A Pouring water over the perineum may stimulate voiding. It is easy, noninvasive,
and should be tried early on.
B Hot tea or other fluids ad lib is an easy, noninvasive strategy, that should be tried
early on.
C If the woman is anticipating pain from voiding, pain medications may be helpful.
Other nonmedical means could be tried first, but medications still come before
insertion of a catheter.
D Invasive procedures usually are the last to be tried, especially with so many other
simple and easy methods available (e.g., water, peppermint vapors, pain pills).

Dogs have been used in studies to detect various cancers in human subjects. They have been trained to sniff breath samples from humans that were collected by having them breathe into special tubes. These people included 55 lung cancer patients, 31 breast cancer patients, and 83 cancer-free patients. The dogs detected 54 of the 55 lung cancer patients as having cancer, detected 28 of the 31 breast cancer patients, and gave only three false-positive results (detecting cancer in people who didn't have it).
