    Correct Answer
    B. Gastrotomy
    Explanation
    Gastrotomy is the correct answer because it refers to the surgical incision of the stomach. This procedure is performed to gain access to the stomach for various purposes such as removing foreign objects, repairing stomach ulcers, or performing gastric bypass surgery. Cystoscopy, hematoma, hyperglycemia, adenopathy, and biopsy do not involve the incision of the stomach and are unrelated to the given question.

    Correct Answer
    E. Hemotoma
    Explanation
    A hematoma is a mass or collection of blood that forms outside of a blood vessel, usually as a result of an injury or trauma. It occurs when blood leaks from damaged blood vessels and pools in the surrounding tissues. Hematomas can vary in size and severity, and they often cause swelling, pain, and discoloration of the skin. Treatment for a hematoma may involve applying ice, elevating the affected area, and in some cases, draining the accumulated blood.

It is not related to carcinogenic (causing cancer), leukemia (a type of blood cancer), neuralgia (nerve pain), or osteitis (inflammation of the bone). The correct answer is leukocytosis because it accurately describes the given scenario of an increase in white blood cells in response to an infection.

    • C.

      Endoplasmic reticulum

    • D.

      Cartilage

    • E.

      Cell membrane

    Correct Answer
    C. Endoplasmic reticulum
    Explanation
    The endoplasmic reticulum is a cell organelle involved in the synthesis and modification of proteins. It consists of a network of membranes that are responsible for the transport of proteins within the cell. The ribosomes attached to the rough endoplasmic reticulum are involved in the synthesis of proteins, while the smooth endoplasmic reticulum is involved in the metabolism of lipids and detoxification of drugs. Therefore, the endoplasmic reticulum is the correct answer as it is the site where the formation of proteins occurs in a cell.
