Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
Peyronie disease is a fibrotic condition that causes lateral curvature of the penis during erection. Phimosis is a condition in which the foreskin cannot be retracted back over the glans. Cryptor-chidism is a condition of testicular maldescent. Paraphimosis is the opposite: the foreskin is re-tracted and cannot be moved forward (reduced) to cover the glans.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
Phimosis is a condition in which the foreskin cannot be retracted back over the glans. Paraphimo-sis is the opposite: the foreskin is retracted and cannot be moved forward (reduced) to cover the glans. Peyronie disease is a fibrotic condition that causes lateral curvature of the penis during erection. Priapism is a prolonged erection.

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.
