Answer to Question 1

B
Feedback:
G = gravida or the total number of pregnancies, which in this case equals five. P = para is the outcome of the pregnancies in the following order: full term, preterm, abortions, and living as of today. In this case, P3114.

Answer to Question 2

A
Feedback:
Endoscopy is the visualization through a scope of any internal structure from a distance. Fiberoptics provides light and magnification at a distance. Ultrasound allows accurate visualization and location of internal structures and their functioning, and of tumors and other lesions. Extracorporeal lithotripsy pulverizes kidney and bladder stones without open surgery.
