3. . Edema, characterized by swelling due to fluid buildup, can be a sign of:

• A. Heart failure
• B. Liver disease
• C. Lymphatic system dysfunction
• D. All of the above

Correct answer: D

Rationale: Edema, which is the accumulation of fluid in tissues leading to swelling, can be caused by various medical conditions. Heart failure can result in fluid retention due to the heart's inability to pump effectively, leading to edema. Liver disease can cause edema by impairing the liver's ability to produce proteins that help maintain fluid balance. Dysfunction of the lymphatic system can also lead to edema, as the lymphatic vessels play a crucial role in draining excess fluid from tissues. Therefore, all the options (heart failure, liver disease, and lymphatic system dysfunction) can contribute to the development of edema, making 'All of the above' the correct answer.

• A. From simple organic molecules in a primordial soup
• B. By spontaneous generation from non-living matter
• C. Through the arrival of extraterrestrial life forms
• D. We still don't know for sure

Correct answer: A

Rationale: Rationale: The most widely accepted scientific theory for the origin of life on Earth is abiogenesis, which suggests that life arose from simple organic molecules in a primordial soup. This theory is supported by experiments such as the Miller-Urey experiment, which demonstrated that the basic building blocks of life could have formed under early Earth conditions. While there are other hypotheses and ongoing research in this field, the primordial soup theory is currently the most plausible explanation for the origin of life on Earth. The other options (B, C, and D) are not supported by scientific evidence or consensus.
