Answer to Question 1

FALSE
Explanation: An abortifacient is a medication that terminates a pregnancy.

Answer to Question 2

FALSE
Explanation: Pleural rub, not effusion, is the grating sound made when the two layers of the pleura rub together. A pleural effusion is an abnormal accumulation of fluid in the pleural cavity preventing the lungs from fully expanding.
