Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
The major site of hematopoiesis in the fetus is in the liver, which retains some minor production until about 2 weeks after birth. In the adult, it is the bone marrow, where production begins in the fifth month of fetal life.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
Only cell shrinkage is characteristic of apoptosis. The other three are characteristic of cell death by necrosis.
