Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
Chronic gastritis is classified as type A (fundal) or type B (antral), depending on the pathogenesis and location of the lesions. Gastritis is not classified by severity, age, or symptoms, but by loca-tion.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A
Visceral pain arises from a stimulus (distention, inflammation, and ischemia) acting on an ab-dominal organ. Somatic is a form of parietal pain. Parietal pain, from the parietal peritoneum, is more localized and intense than visceral pain, which arises from the organs themselves. Referred pain is visceral pain felt at some distance from a diseased or affected organ.
