Answer to Question 1

C
Feedback:
Periorbital cellulitis is a bacterial infection of the eyelids and tissue surrounding the eye. The bacteria may gain entry into the skin via an abrasion, laceration, insect bite, foreign body, or impetiginous lesion. It may also result from a nearby bacterial infection such as sinusitis. Findings include marked eyelid edema, purplish or red color of the eyelid, clear conjunctivae, absence of discharge, and normal visual acuity.

Answer to Question 2

B
Feedback:
Emission refers to the movement of sperm from the testes and fluids from the accessory glands into the urethra, where it is mixed to form semen. As the urethra fills with semen, the base of the erect penis contracts, thus increasing pressure. This pressure forces the semen through the urethra to the outside (ejaculation). Dilation of the penile arteries with increased blood flow describes erection. The body's return to the physiologic nonstimulated state describes resolution.
