Nursing Elites

1. What is the term used to describe the gestational sac surrounded by a blood clot and retained in the tube?

• A. A carneous mole.
• B. A hydatidiform mole.
• C. A vesicular mole.
• D. A chorionic mole.

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A: a carneous mole. A carneous mole occurs when a gestational sac is surrounded by a blood clot and retained in the tube. Choice B, a hydatidiform mole, is incorrect as it refers to an abnormal pregnancy characterized by the presence of hydropic chorionic villi. Choice C, a vesicular mole, is also incorrect as it is another term for a complete hydatidiform mole. Choice D, a chorionic mole, is not a recognized medical term and is therefore incorrect.

2. What forms the vaginal lining?

• A. Squamous epithelium
• B. Stratified epithelium
• C. Vascular connective tissue
• D. Muscle coat

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The vaginal lining is primarily formed by squamous epithelium. Squamous epithelium is the correct answer because it is the type of epithelium that lines the vaginal canal. Stratified epithelium consists of multiple layers and is not the primary type found in the vaginal lining. Vascular connective tissue and muscle coat are not the main components of the vaginal lining, making them incorrect choices.

3. What is one goal of family planning?

• A. Ensuring that all couples and individuals have the basic right to decide freely and responsibly the number and spacing of their children
• B. Limiting couples and individuals to one or two children
• C. Forcing couples and individuals to have only one child and adopt siblings from an orphanage
• D. Providing a permanent method of family planning after having three children

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A. Family planning aims to ensure that all couples and individuals have the basic right to decide freely and responsibly the number and spacing of their children. This promotes reproductive autonomy and allows individuals to make informed choices about their family size. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect because they involve imposing restrictions or decisions on family size rather than empowering individuals to make their own choices.

4. Amniocentesis deals with patterns of ______ in the amniotic fluid.

• A. Fingers
• B. DNA
• C. Chromosomes
• D. Proteins

Correct answer: C

Rationale: Amniocentesis is a prenatal test that involves examining chromosomes in the amniotic fluid to detect genetic abnormalities. Therefore, the correct answer is 'Chromosomes.' The other choices, such as 'Fingers,' 'DNA,' and 'Proteins,' do not accurately represent what is analyzed during an amniocentesis procedure and are unrelated to the genetic information obtained through this test.

5. Complete abortion is characterized by:

• A. Os closed.
• B. Firm contracted uterus.
• C. Heavy bleeding.
• D. Heavy cramping.

Correct answer: A

Rationale: Complete abortion is characterized by a firm contracted uterus with a closed os. This closure of the os indicates that the products of conception have been completely expelled from the uterus. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect because a firm contracted uterus with a closed os is the hallmark sign of a complete abortion, not heavy bleeding, heavy cramping, or any other features.
