The penis is primarily composed of bone and muscle tissue.
 
  Indicate whether the statement is true or false

Question 2

A friend of yours has just turned 40 and he is asking you whether or not he should have a PSA test done as part of his annual physical exam. What would you tell him?
 
  A) Definitely yes, because along with a rectal exam, PSA is likely to prevent prostate cancer.
  B) Yes, because along with treatment, his chances of surviving prostate cancer will be greatly increased.
  C) No, because current research shows that a positive PSA test does not correlate at all with prostate cancer.
  D) You should tell him to look at the research literature and have a discussion with his physician about the relative risks versus potential benefits of PSA screening.

Every flu season is different, and even healthy people can get extremely sick from the flu, as well as spread it to others. The flu season can begin as early as October and last as late as May. Every person over six months of age should get an annual flu vaccine. The vaccine cannot cause you to get influenza, but in some seasons, may not be completely able to prevent you from acquiring influenza due to changes in causative viruses. The viruses in the flu shot are killed—there is no way they can give you the flu. Minor side effects include soreness, redness, or swelling where the shot was given. It is possible to develop a slight fever, and body aches, but these are simply signs that the body is responding to the vaccine and making itself ready to fight off the influenza virus should you come in contact with it.
