1. What is the most common site for an ectopic pregnancy?

• A. Isthmus
• B. Ampulla
• C. Interstitial
• D. Infundibulum

Correct answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C, Interstitial. An ectopic pregnancy most commonly occurs in the interstitial portion of the fallopian tube. This is because the interstitial part is narrow and not suitable for the growing embryo, leading to implantation outside the uterus. Choices A, B, and D are incorrect because although ectopic pregnancies can occur in various locations, the interstitial portion of the fallopian tube is the most frequent site for such pregnancies.

2. How do contraceptive oral pills help in birth control?

• A. Preventing ovulation
• B. Killing ova
• C. Killing sperms
• D. More than one of the above

Correct answer: A

Rationale: Contraceptive oral pills primarily work by preventing ovulation, which means Choice A is correct. Choices B and C are incorrect because oral contraceptive pills do not kill ova or sperms. Choice D is incorrect because only preventing ovulation is the primary mechanism of action for oral contraceptive pills.

3. Abortion is defined as:

• A. Bleeding per vaginum in early pregnancy
• B. Willingness to terminate pregnancy
• C. Expulsion of products of conception after the 28th week of gestation
• D. Expulsion of products of conception before the 28th week of gestation

Correct answer: D

Rationale: Abortion is defined as the expulsion of products of conception before the 28th week of gestation. Choice A is incorrect as it describes bleeding in early pregnancy, not the definition of abortion. Choice B is incorrect as it refers to the willingness to terminate a pregnancy rather than the actual act of expulsion. Choice C is incorrect as it defines abortion as the expulsion of products of conception after the 28th week of gestation, which is considered a stillbirth.

4. What does Bidder's canal receive?

• A. Eggs
• B. Sperms
• C. Ammonia
• D. Oxygenated blood

Correct answer: B

Rationale: Bidder's canal is a part of the male reproductive system and receives sperm from the testes. The other choices are incorrect because Bidder's canal is not associated with receiving eggs, ammonia, or oxygenated blood.

• B. All products of conception are expelled with minimal bleeding.
• C. The cervix remains closed, and the products of conception remain in the uterus.
• D. The cervix remains closed, but there is heavy bleeding.

Correct answer: C

Rationale: Missed abortion occurs when the cervix is closed, and the products of conception remain in the uterus. Choice A describes a missed abortion, not choice C. Choice B describes a complete abortion. Choice D describes a threatened abortion, where the cervix remains closed but there is heavy bleeding.
