Accepted Answer

Puerperal fever is an infectious disease of childbirth that results from an infection originating in the birth canal and affecting the mother's endometrium. Emesis gravidarum is severe nausea and vomiting during pregnancy, Turner's syndrome and Klinefelter's syndrome are genetic disorders, and fetal alcohol syndrome is caused by alcohol consumption during pregnancy.

Question 10

Which of the terms below describes the beginning or first discernable indication of the development of an organ or structure?
A)Conceptus
B)Primordium
C)Epigenesis
D)Karyotype
E)Fertilization age

Accepted Answer

"Primordium" specifically refers to the beginning or first discernable indication of the development of an organ or structure. "Conceptus" is a more general term referring to the entire product of conception (including the embryo/fetus and associated structures), "epigenesis" refers to the process of differentiation and growth during development, "karyotype" refers to the genetic makeup of an individual, and "fertilization age" is the amount of time that has elapsed since fertilization occurred.

Question 11

Which condition listed is a sex chromosome aneuploidy,usually due to trisomy XXY?
A)Emesis gravidarum
B)Deformation
C)Turner's syndrome
D)Breech presentation
E)Klinefelter's syndrome

Accepted Answer

The condition listed that is a sex chromosome aneuploidy and usually due to trisomy XXY is Klinefelter's syndrome. Emesis gravidarum is severe morning sickness during pregnancy, deformation is a general term for physical abnormalities, Turner's syndrome is a sex chromosome aneuploidy but is due to a missing X chromosome, and breech presentation refers to a baby being positioned bottom-down in the womb.

Question 12

Which condition listed is a developmental abnormality due to mechanical forces that mold a part of the fetus over a prolonged period of time?
A)Emesis gravidarum
B)Deformation
C)Turner's syndrome
D)Breech presentation
E)Klinefelter's syndrome

Accepted Answer

Deformation is a developmental abnormality due to mechanical forces that mold a part of the fetus over a prolonged period of time. Emesis gravidarum is a condition of severe vomiting during pregnancy. Turner's syndrome and Klinefelter's syndrome are chromosomal disorders. Breech presentation is a position in which the baby is positioned buttocks or feet first instead of headfirst during delivery.

Question 13

Which condition listed is a sex chromosome aneuploidy characterized by at least 3 X chromosomes (XXX)?
A)Emesis gravidarum
B)Metafemale syndrome
C)Turner's syndrome
D)Lethal gene
E)Klinefelter's syndrome

Accepted Answer

Metafemale syndrome, also known as triple X syndrome or Trisomy X, is characterized by the presence of at least three X chromosomes in females. This can cause developmental delays, learning difficulties, and physical characteristics such as taller height and lower muscle tone.

Question 14

Which condition listed is also called morning sickness?
A)Emesis gravidarum
B)Deformation
C)Turner's syndrome
D)Breech presentation
E)Klinefelter's syndrome

Accepted Answer

Emesis gravidarum is commonly known as morning sickness, which is a condition characterized by nausea and vomiting during pregnancy. Deformation, Turner's syndrome, Breech presentation, and Klinefelter's syndrome are different medical conditions and do not have anything to do with morning sickness.

Question 15

Which condition listed is one of the most common causes of mental retardation and the most common preventable cause of birth defects in the United States?
A)Emesis gravidarum
B)Metafemale syndrome
C)Turner's syndrome
D)Fetal alcohol syndrome
E)Klinefelter's syndrome

Accepted Answer

Fetal alcohol syndrome is one of the most common causes of mental retardation and the most common preventable cause of birth defects in the United States. It occurs when a pregnant woman consumes alcohol, which can cause damage to the developing fetus.

Question 16

Red-green color blindness is a recessive,X-linked trait represented as X^c.(Normal color vision is represented as X^C. )If a daughter has red-green color blindness,what must the genotypes of her parents be?

Accepted Answer

The answer of Red-green color blindness is a recessive,X-linked trait...

Question 17

Which condition listed gives rise to sterile females with virtually no ovaries and limited development of secondary sex characteristics?
A)Emesis gravidarum
B)Deformation
C)Turner's syndrome
D)Breech presentation
E)Klinefelter's syndrome

Accepted Answer

Turner's syndrome is a genetic disorder caused by the partial or complete absence of one of the X chromosomes, resulting in female individuals who are sterile, with limited development of secondary sex characteristics, and virtually no ovaries.

Question 18

Which of the terms below includes all structures that develop from a zygote: the embryo,the embryonic placenta and its associated membranes?
A)Conceptus
B)Primordium
C)Epigenesis
D)Gestational age
E)Karyotype

Accepted Answer

The conceptus includes all structures that develop from a zygote, including the embryo, the embryonic placenta, and its associated membranes. Primordium refers to an early stage of development of an organ or structure, while epigenesis refers to the process of development where new structures are formed through the alteration of existing structures. Gestational age refers to the length of time since the first day of the mother's last menstrual period, while karyotype refers to the number and appearance of an individual's chromosomes.

Question 19

Which condition listed gives rise to individuals that are: somewhat mentally disadvantaged,sterile males with undeveloped testes,scant body hair,and enlarged breasts?
A)Emesis gravidarum
B)Deformation
C)Turner's syndrome
D)Breech presentation
E)Klinefelter's syndrome

Accepted Answer

Klinefelter's syndrome is a genetic disorder where males have an extra X chromosome (XXY) which leads to underdeveloped testes, little body hair, and sometimes breast enlargement. These individuals may also experience some degree of mental disabilities.

Question 20
