Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
The flexible bronchoscope uses fiberoptic bundles to illuminate the endobronchial tree. Based on its imaging system, FBs are divided into fiberoptic, video, or hybrid.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
Positron emission tomography (PET) is often very helpful in evaluating solitary pulmonary nod-ules. Nodules with greater than 1 cm diameter that are avid for the isotope used in PET (5 fluorodeoxyglucose) and therefore light up on the scan generally are more likely to be malig-nant than nodules without uptake.

Your skin wrinkles if you stay in the bathtub a long time because the outermost layer of skin (which consists of dead keratin) swells when it absorbs water. It is tightly attached to the skin below it, so it compensates for the increased area by wrinkling. This happens to the hands and feet because they have the thickest layer of dead keratin cells.
