Nursing Elites

1. What type of epithelium lines the fallopian tubes?

• A. Ciliated epithelium.
• B. Stratified epithelium.
• C. Columnar epithelium.
• D. Endometrium.

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A: Ciliated epithelium. The fallopian tubes are lined with ciliated epithelium, which helps to move the egg from the ovary to the uterus. Choice B, Stratified epithelium, is incorrect because the fallopian tubes are lined with a single layer of cells. Choice C, Columnar epithelium, is incorrect as it does not accurately describe the lining of the fallopian tubes. Choice D, Endometrium, is incorrect because the endometrium is the inner lining of the uterus, not the fallopian tubes.

2. What is the function of luteinizing hormone?

• A. Maintains the corpus luteum
• B. Ripens the Graafian follicle
• C. Prepares the breasts for lactation
• D. Produces regrowth of the endometrium

Correct answer: A

Rationale: Luteinizing hormone is responsible for maintaining the corpus luteum after ovulation. This is crucial for the production of progesterone, which helps prepare the endometrium for implantation and supports early pregnancy. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect: B is the function of follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) which stimulates the growth of ovarian follicles, C is mainly regulated by prolactin, and D is primarily associated with estrogen and progesterone.

3. How can menopause affect health?

• A. Causing conjunctivitis
• B. Leading to colitis or bowel upsets
• C. Increasing the risk of cancer
• D. Triggering urinary infections

Correct answer: D

Rationale: Menopause can lead to changes in the urinary tract, such as decreased estrogen levels, which can increase the likelihood of urinary tract infections. While menopause can impact various aspects of health, including bone density and heart health, it is not directly linked to conjunctivitis, colitis, or an increased risk of cancer. Therefore, the correct answer is D.

4. How can the need to respect clients' rights to informed consent be attained in quality of care?

• A. by providing adequate information and counseling
• B. by forcing all patients scheduled for surgery to sign the consent form
• C. by engaging the Senior medical superintendent of the hospital to sign consent forms for the patients
• D. by simply telling the patient to sign the consent form

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A: 'by providing adequate information and counseling.' Respecting clients' rights to informed consent involves ensuring that patients are adequately informed about the procedures they will undergo. This includes providing them with all necessary information and counseling to make an informed decision. Choice B is incorrect because forcing patients to sign consent forms does not ensure that they are fully informed or that their rights are respected. Choice C is incorrect as involving a senior medical superintendent to sign consent forms does not guarantee that patients are adequately informed. Choice D is incorrect because simply telling the patient to sign the consent form does not fulfill the requirement of providing adequate information for informed consent.

5. How does human sperm move?

• A. Flagella
• B. Cilia
• C. Neutrophils
• D. None of the above

Correct answer: A

Rationale: Human sperm moves using flagella, which are whip-like structures that aid in propulsion. Flagella are tail-like structures found in sperm cells and help them swim towards the egg for fertilization. Cilia are shorter, hair-like structures that are not involved in the movement of sperm. Neutrophils are a type of white blood cell involved in the immune response and are not related to sperm locomotion.
