Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
Just below each rib are a thoracic artery, vein, and nerve that supply blood flow and nerve com-munications to that region of the chest wall (Figure 9-17).

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
Rib pairs 1 through 7 are known as the true ribs because they are attached directly to the sternum.
