Wilms tumor is a tumor found in the kidney, not the brain, the bone marrow, or the liver.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
One of the more recognized syndromes is the association of trisomy 21 and Down syndrome, with an increased susceptibility to acute leukemia, not nephroblastoma, rhabdomyosarcoma, or retinoblastoma.
