Explanation: Fibrillation is a dangerously irregular heartbeat. Tachycardia is the heart beating too fast. Cardiac arrest means that the heart has stopped beating. If someone has had a myocardial infarction, they have suffered a heart attack.

Answer to Question 2

1. Stages A and B are cancers confined to the prostate gland.
2. Stage C cancer has spread to other tissues near the prostate gland.
3. Stage D cancer has spread to lymph nodes or sites in the body a distance away from the prostate.
