Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
The pathophysiologic mechanism is a complex combination of lung hypoplasia, including de-creased alveolar count and decreased pulmonary vasculature, pulmonary hypertension, and unu-sual anatomy of the inferior vena cava.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
The most common of these malformations is esophageal atresia with a distal fistula, which com-prises 85 to 90 of all tracheoesophageal fistulas.

Dogs have been used in studies to detect various cancers in human subjects. They have been trained to sniff breath samples from humans that were collected by having them breathe into special tubes. These people included 55 lung cancer patients, 31 breast cancer patients, and 83 cancer-free patients. The dogs detected 54 of the 55 lung cancer patients as having cancer, detected 28 of the 31 breast cancer patients, and gave only three false-positive results (detecting cancer in people who didn't have it).

This is partially backed up by the fact that early grandfather clocks displayed IIII for the number 4 instead of IV. Early clockmakers apparently thought that the IIII balanced out the VIII (used for the number 8) on the clock face and that it just looked better.
