Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
This question involves the Venturi principle, which states that the pressure drop caused by fluid flowing through a tubular constriction can be restored to preconstriction values by allowing for a gradual dilation in the tube.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
As fluid approaches a constriction in a tube, the flow of the liquid will accelerate (increase) as it enters the constriction, which in turn causes a decrease in lateral-wall pressure.

When Gabriel Fahrenheit invented the first mercury thermometer, he called "zero degrees" the lowest temperature he was able to attain with a mixture of ice and salt. For the upper point of his scale, he used 96°, which he measured as normal human body temperature (we know it to be 98.6° today because of more accurate thermometers).

Over time, chronic hepatitis B virus and hepatitis C virus infections can progress to advanced liver disease, liver failure, and hepatocellular carcinoma. Unlike other forms, more than 80% of hepatitis C infections become chronic and lead to liver disease. When combined with hepatitis B, hepatitis C now accounts for 75% percent of all cases of liver disease around the world. Liver failure caused by hepatitis C is now leading cause of liver transplants in the United States.
