Answer to Question 1

B, D
Feedback:
Manifestations of Klinefelter's syndrome include mild mental retardation, small testicles, infertility, long arms and legs, gynecomastia, scant facial and body hair, and decreased libido.

Answer to Question 2

D
Feedback:
A probable sign of pregnancy is one that is objective and can be measured by an observer. A positive pregnancy test is a probable sign of pregnancy. Amenorrhea, enlargement and darkening of areola, and nausea and vomiting are presumptive signs because they could indicate another health condition.

Looking at the sun may not only cause headache and distort your vision temporarily, but it can also cause permanent eye damage. Any exposure to sunlight adds to the cumulative effects of ultraviolet (UV) radiation on your eyes. UV exposure has been linked to eye disorders such as macular degeneration, solar retinitis, and corneal dystrophies.

Every flu season is different, and even healthy people can get extremely sick from the flu, as well as spread it to others. The flu season can begin as early as October and last as late as May. Every person over six months of age should get an annual flu vaccine. The vaccine cannot cause you to get influenza, but in some seasons, may not be completely able to prevent you from acquiring influenza due to changes in causative viruses. The viruses in the flu shot are killed—there is no way they can give you the flu. Minor side effects include soreness, redness, or swelling where the shot was given. It is possible to develop a slight fever, and body aches, but these are simply signs that the body is responding to the vaccine and making itself ready to fight off the influenza virus should you come in contact with it.

Asthma attacks and symptoms usually get started by specific triggers (such as viruses, allergies, gases, and air particles). You should talk to your doctor about these triggers and find ways to avoid or get rid of them.
