1. In order to provide services effectively and in the best interests of the whole family:

• A. The wife's relatives need to be contacted
• B. It's important to seek the services of a traditional healer
• C. Health providers need to be aware of the roles and decision-making process within the family
• D. Health providers need to conduct door-to-door sensitization on health matters

Correct answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C: 'Health providers need to be aware of the roles and decision-making process within the family.' To provide services effectively, health providers must understand the dynamics within a family, including who makes decisions and how roles are distributed. This knowledge helps them tailor their services to meet the needs and preferences of the whole family. Choices A and B are incorrect because contacting the wife's relatives or seeking the services of a traditional healer may not necessarily align with providing effective services based on family dynamics. Choice D is also incorrect as door-to-door sensitization may not directly address the internal dynamics of a family.

2. What does reproductive health refer to?

• A. Healthy baby
• B. Frequent coitus
• C. Healthy reproductive organs and functions
• D. Longer lifetime

Correct answer: C

Rationale: Reproductive health refers to the overall well-being of the reproductive system, including both the organs and their functions. It encompasses the ability to have a satisfying and safe sex life, the capability to reproduce, and the absence of reproductive problems. Choice A is incorrect because reproductive health is not solely about having a healthy baby but also includes the health of the individual. Choice B is incorrect as it focuses only on sexual activity frequency rather than the holistic well-being of the reproductive system. Choice D is incorrect because a longer lifetime does not specifically relate to reproductive health.

3. When does missed abortion occur?

• A. The fetus dies and is retained in utero with the placenta and membranes.
• 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.

4. Which department of the Government ministries was given the mandate to pilot a draft population policy?

• A. The department of planning and development
• B. National census
• C. Human rights
• D. Central statistics

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A: The department of planning and development. In the extract provided, it explicitly mentions that this department was tasked with piloting the population policy. The other choices are incorrect because the National census is primarily responsible for collecting demographic data, Human rights focus on ensuring and protecting human rights, and Central statistics deal with statistical data collection and analysis, none of which directly align with piloting a population policy.

5. Which of the following are layers of the anterior abdominal wall?

• A. Linear albicantes
• B. Superficial fascia
• C. Visceral peritoneum
• D. Fascia transversalis

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A: Linear albicantes and B: Superficial fascia. Linear albicantes are stretch marks, and the superficial fascia is one of the layers of the anterior abdominal wall. Choices C and D, Visceral peritoneum and Fascia transversalis, respectively, are not layers of the anterior abdominal wall. The visceral peritoneum is a membrane covering the abdominal organs, and the fascia transversalis is a layer deep to the transversus abdominis muscle.
