Answer to Question 1

B
Feedback:
A colposcopy is a microscopic examination of the lower genital tract using a magnifying instrument. Use of a microphone-like device over the abdomen describes an ultrasound. Obtaining tissue scrapings that are examined under a microscope describes a Pap smear. Insertion of a device under anesthesia near the umbilicus describes a biopsy obtained via laparoscopy.

Answer to Question 2

B
Feedback
A Weight gain, not loss, is a side effect of valproic acid.
B Thrombocytopenia is an adverse effect of valproic acid. Parents should be alert
for any unusual bruising or bleeding.
C Drowsiness is not a side effect of valproic acid, although it is associated with
other anticonvulsant medications.
D Anorexia is not a side effect of valproic acid.
