Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
It is believed there is a familial tendency toward varicosities caused by incompetent valves, which afflicts both males and females. Habitual long periods of standing, repeated pregnancies, and obesity are other predisposing factors.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
During an abdominal aneurysmectomy, the small intestine and ascending colon are delivered outside the abdomen to increase exposure; warm moist tapes, moist radiopaque towels, plastic sheeting, or a bowel bag may be used to protect these structures.

This condition is progressive and worsens with time. More than 100 million people in the United States are nearsighted, but only 20% of those are born with the condition. Diet, eye exercise, drug therapy, and corrective lenses can all help manage nearsightedness.
