Answer to Question 1

B
Pulmonary angiography can identify pulmonary emboli and arteriovenous malformations. A coronary angiogram is needed to find coronary artery occlusions. A bronchoscopy may be needed to find the source of hemoptysis.

Answer to Question 2

B
A pleural effusion causes the separation (not adhesion) of the visceral and parietal pleura.
