Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
Full development from stage 2 to stage 5 takes an average of 3 years, although the range is 1 to 6 years. Pubic hair develops during this time, and axillary hair appears 2 years after the onset of pubic hair. The beginning of breast development precedes menarche by approximately 2 years. Menarche occurs in breast development stage 3 or 4, usually just after the peak of the adolescent growth spurt, which occurs around age 12 years

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
The breast has extensive lymphatic drainage. Most of the lymph, more than 75, drains into the ipsilateral, or same side, axillary nodes.
