Answer to Question 1

C

Answer to Question 2

A
Feedback:
A urethral meatus located on the underside of the penis is called hypospadias. A meatus located on the upper surface is called epispadias. These congenital conditions are usually repaired surgically at a young age if they are severe. Cryptorchidism is an undescended testicle, and, with phimosis, the foreskin becomes so tight that it will not retract over the glans penis.
