Answer to Question 1

Ans:
C

Feedback:

HPV is an identified precursor to condylomata acuminata, or genital warts. Herpes, gonorrhea, and candidiasis are not likely to result directly from HPV.

Answer to Question 2

Ans:
C

Feedback:

Embryonic differentiation results in an anatomical relationship between the labia majora and the scrotum and between the clitoris and the penis. There is no identified hormonal/endocrine role of the structures of the external genitalia, and a ruptured hymen does not necessitate medical intervention.
