Answer to Question 1

Proper development of the spermatozoa depends on an environment in which the temperature is a few degrees cooler than body temperature, as it is in the scrotum because it is outside the body.

B) Ferritin is not a protein in the plasma.
C) Bilirubin is not a protein in the plasma.

These people included 55 lung cancer patients, 31 breast cancer patients, and 83 cancer-free patients. 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).
