1. Which female reproductive organ is positioned directly posterior to the bladder?

• A. Uterine tube
• B. Vagina
• C. Uterus
• D. Ovaries

Correct answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is the uterus. The uterus is positioned directly posterior to the bladder in the female reproductive system. The uterine tube (choice A) is also known as the fallopian tube, which is not positioned directly posterior to the bladder. The vagina (choice B) is located below the uterus and not directly posterior to the bladder. The ovaries (choice D) are located on either side of the uterus, but they are not positioned directly posterior to the bladder.

2. To minimize unsafe abortions, IRH has strengthened:

• A. The termination of pregnancy act
• B. The post-abortion care and counseling services
• C. The gender and violence unit of the police services
• D. The empowerment of all women who want to abort

Correct answer: B

Rationale: Post-abortion care and counseling services are crucial in reducing unsafe abortions by providing support, medical care, and guidance to individuals who have undergone abortions, ensuring their physical and emotional well-being. Strengthening the termination of pregnancy act (Choice A) might focus more on the legal aspects rather than the healthcare services needed post-abortion. The gender and violence unit of the police services (Choice C) is important for addressing gender-based violence but not directly related to reducing unsafe abortions. Empowering all women who want to abort (Choice D) is a broad concept that may not specifically address the need for comprehensive post-abortion care and counseling services.

3. At what point is a fetus considered viable?

• A. 26 weeks
• B. 28 weeks
• C. 37 weeks
• D. 12 weeks

Correct answer: C

Rationale: A fetus is considered viable after 37 weeks of gestation. At this stage, the fetus has a higher chance of surviving outside the womb with medical support. Choice A (26 weeks), Choice B (28 weeks), and Choice D (12 weeks) are incorrect because a fetus is not typically considered viable at those earlier gestational ages.

4. Cryptorchidism is a condition where _________.

• A. One or both testes are not developed
• B. One or both testes fail to descend into the scrotum
• C. One or both testes are not formed
• D. None of the above

Correct answer: B

Rationale: Cryptorchidism is a condition where one or both testes fail to descend into the scrotum. This means that the testes do not properly move from the abdomen into the scrotum during fetal development. Choice A is incorrect because the issue is not about development but descent. Choice C is incorrect as it implies that the testes were never formed, which is not the case in cryptorchidism. Choice D is incorrect as cryptorchidism does involve the testes but rather their descent into the scrotum.

5. 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.
