1. 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.

2. By which name is family planning currently known?

• A. Reproductive and child care
• B. Family and child care
• C. Reproductive and child health
• D. Reproductive and child health care

Correct answer: C

Rationale: Family planning is currently known as Reproductive and Child Health (RCH). It encompasses a broader scope beyond just care, focusing on the overall health aspects related to reproduction and child well-being. Choices A, B, and D are incorrect as they do not accurately reflect the comprehensive nature of family planning under the term Reproductive and Child Health.

3. During which phase of the menstrual cycle does the Graafian follicle rupture?

• A. Regenerative
• B. Menstruation
• C. Ovulation
• D. Proliferative

Correct answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C: Ovulation. The Graafian follicle ruptures during the ovulation phase, releasing the mature egg from the ovary. This process marks the midpoint of the menstrual cycle. Choice A, Regenerative, is incorrect as it does not correspond to a specific phase of the menstrual cycle. Choice B, Menstruation, is incorrect because menstruation is the shedding of the uterine lining and occurs after ovulation if fertilization does not occur. Choice D, Proliferative, is incorrect as it refers to the phase in which the uterine lining thickens in preparation for a potential embryo implantation, which happens after ovulation.

4. Which of the following methods is used for permanent contraception in males?

• A. Vasectomy
• B. Tubal ligation
• C. Condoms
• D. Coitus interruptus

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A: Vasectomy. Vasectomy is a surgical procedure for permanent contraception in males by cutting or blocking the vas deferens. Choice B, Tubal ligation, is a method for permanent contraception in females by blocking or sealing the fallopian tubes. Choice C, Condoms, provide a barrier method of contraception but are not permanent. Choice D, Coitus interruptus, involves withdrawing the penis before ejaculation and is not a reliable method of contraception.

5. Which statement accurately describes the female pelvis?

• A. Gynaecoid pelvis has a wedge-shaped inlet
• B. Platypelloid pelvis has an oval inlet
• C. Anthropoid pelvis has a long narrow oval inlet
• D. Android pelvis is wedge-shaped

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B because the Platypelloid pelvis indeed has an oval inlet. Gynaecoid pelvis, not mentioned in the choices, has a round inlet. Anthropoid pelvis has a long, narrow oval inlet, which makes choice C incorrect. Choice D is incorrect as the Android pelvis is actually heart-shaped with a narrowed inlet.
