Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
A sharp trocar has a tip that is exposed and is shaped pyramidal or conical. A blunt trocar has a rounded tip, and a shielded trocar tip is protected by a spring-loaded shield. An initial trocar is one that is inserted first to establish access to instill gases or fluids.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: F
Shock is a state of inadequate blood perfusion to parts of the body. Shock is classified according to the cause of inadequate tissue perfusion: hypovolemic, hemorrhagic, cardiogenic, neurogenic, and vasogenic shock.

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).

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.
