Answer to Question 1

Seminoma: a type of a malignant tumor of the testis
Teratoma: malignant tumor comprised of several different types of malignant tissue
Embryonal cancer: malignant cells resemble rapidly growing trophoblastic tissue
Choriocarcinoma: malignant proliferation of trophoblastic tissue

Answer to Question 2

1 . Stimulation of the parasympathetic neurons on sexual arousal causes the release of the neurotransmitter nitric oxide.
2 . Nitric oxide diffuses into the smooth muscles, causing the release of cGMP that causes relaxation and dilatation of the smooth muscles of the penile arteries and trabeculae within the corpora cavernosa.
3 . Blood under pressure fills the cavernous bodies.
4 . The increased arterial blood flow and pressure compress the draining veins, preventing the outflow of blood and causing the penis to become rigid and erect.
5 . cGMP is broken down by the phosphodiesterase enzyme.

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.

Your skin wrinkles if you stay in the bathtub a long time because the outermost layer of skin (which consists of dead keratin) swells when it absorbs water. It is tightly attached to the skin below it, so it compensates for the increased area by wrinkling. This happens to the hands and feet because they have the thickest layer of dead keratin cells.
