Answer to Question 1

ANS: A, C, E
Cancer of the testis occurs most commonly in men between the ages of 15 and 35 years. In the United States, the lifetime probability of developing testicular cancer is 0.3 for white men, an incidence that is 4.5 times higher than in blacks. Testicular cancer is also a well-established com-plication of cryptorchidism.
