Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
The uterus is the female organ of gestation capable of receiving, holding, expanding, and expelling the child during birth.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
Uterine fibroids are benign, slow growing tumors or myomas that are composed of muscle and fibrous connective tissue that attach to the uterine wall or have a pedicle and protrude into the uterine cavity. In myomectomy, the fibroid tumors are removed when they cause problems such as pelvic pain, bleeding, pressure, or interfere with pregnancy.
