• C. Delicate
• D. Abundance

Correct answer: B

Rationale: Redundancy means having more than is needed, making 'Surplus' the correct choice. The term does not relate to 'Deficiency' (lack), 'Delicate' (fragile), or 'Abundance' (plenty). In the context of this question, Redundancy refers to an excess or surplus of something.

3. A sore with disintegration of tissue might be called an ___________.

• A. allergy
• B. erythema
• C. alopecia
• D. ulcer

Correct answer: D

Rationale: A sore with disintegration of tissue is typically referred to as an ulcer. Ulcers are open sores or wounds that can develop on the skin's surface or within the body. They can vary in size and depth and are commonly associated with conditions such as pressure ulcers, peptic ulcers, and venous ulcers. Ulcers result from the breakdown of tissue, leading to a loss of the skin or mucous membrane in that area. Choices A, B, and C are incorrect. Allergy refers to a hypersensitivity reaction, erythema is redness of the skin, and alopecia is hair loss. These conditions do not specifically involve the disintegration of tissue as seen in an ulcer.

4. What does the word Trepidation mean?

• A. Fear
• B. Misgivings
• C. Confidence
• D. Doubt

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: 'Misgivings'. Trepidation is defined as a feeling of fear or anxiety about something that may happen. Choice A ('Fear') is too broad and does not capture the specific sense of unease that trepidation conveys. Choice C ('Confidence') is the opposite of what trepidation represents. Choice D ('Doubt') is related to uncertainty but does not fully encapsulate the sense of fear and anxiety associated with trepidation.

5. What is another word for cicatrix?

• A. Beetle
• B. Scalpel
• C. Antidote

Rationale: The correct answer is D, 'Scar.' A cicatrix is a scar, which is a mark left on the skin or within body tissue after the healing of a wound or injury. Choices A, B, and C ('Beetle,' 'Scalpel,' and 'Antidote') are incorrect as they do not represent synonyms for cicatrix.
