Answer to Question 1

Ans:
B

Feedback:

Often the first sign of testicular cancer is a slight enlargement of the testicle that may be accompanied by some degree of discomfort. Back pain and hemoptysis are last signs leading to a metastatic lesion. It is normal for the testicle to hang lower than the other.

Answer to Question 2

Ans:
D

Feedback:

The sperm count in a normal ejaculate is approximately 100 to 400 million. Infertility may occur when insufficient numbers of motile, healthy sperm are present. A fertile sample on seminal fluid analysis is associated with a count greater than 20 million/mL, greater than 50 motility, normal morphology, and a volume of 1.5 to 6 mL.

The dogs detected 54 of the 55 lung cancer patients as having cancer, detected 28 of the 31 breast cancer patients, and gave only three false-positive results (detecting cancer in people who didn't have it).
