Answer to Question 1

C
If the fetus is viable and near term, delivery is the only known cure for preeclampsia.
Magnesium sulfate is one of the medications used to treat but not to cure preeclampsia.
Antihypertensive medications are used to lower the dangerously elevated blood pressures in preeclampsia and eclampsia.
Low doses of ASA (60 to 80 mg) have been administered to women at high risk for devel-oping preeclampsia.

Answer to Question 2

A
Metastasis occurs when the cancer cells spread to the very vascular sites, commonly the lungs, liver, and bones. Kidney metastasis is uncommon, as is metastasis to the heart and blood vessels. The brain is one of the final areas to be reached by metastasis.
