Answer to Question 1

1, 3, 5
The paraurethral glands or Skene's glands in a female are equivalent to the prostate in the male. They are located just inside of and on the posterior area of the urethra, and they secrete mucus. The bulbourethral glands or Bartholin's glands in the female secrete mucus near the vaginal opening. The bulbourethral glands are similar to the Cowper's glands in the male. The paraurethral glands do serve a purpose and function.

Answer to Question 2

2
A renal ultrasound must be done before any diagnostic tests that use barium. If this is not possible, at least 24 hours must elapse between the barium swallow and the renal ultrasound.

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.
