Answer to Question 1

D
Explanation: Sulci are the valleys separating the convolutions on the surface of the cerebrum. The gyri are the elevations on the surface of the cerebrum. The ventricles are cavities containing cerebrospinal fluid. The synapse is the point at which the axon of one neuron meets the dendrite of the next neuron.

Answer to Question 2

D
Explanation: Nephr/o means kidney and -malacia means abnormal softening, so nephromalacia means abnormal kidney softening. -itis means inflammation, so nephritis means kidney inflammation. -sclerosis means hardening, so nephrosclerosis means kidney hardening. -ptosis means drooping, so nephroptosis means kidney drooping.
