Analyze Question 16

The question asks which organ system a doctor is checking when using a sphygmomanometer. The introductory text states that a sphygmomanometer is a device used to measure a person's heart rate and blood pressure.

Using our understanding of Human Organ Systems, we know that heart rate and blood pressure are direct indicators of the cardiovascular or circulatory system's function. The circulatory system is responsible for pumping and circulating blood throughout the body. Therefore, the correct option is C.

Analyze Question 17

We need to identify which row incorrectly matches the medical condition with its treatment. Let's evaluate each row:

• Row I: Kidney Failure (filtering waste from blood) is treated with Dialysis. This is a correct match.
• Row II: Asthma (breathing trouble from narrowed airways) is matched with Physical Exercise. While general exercise is healthy, physical exercise is not a direct medical treatment for asthma; in fact, it can sometimes trigger asthma attacks (exercise-induced bronchoconstriction). Asthma is typically treated with bronchodilators or inhalers. Thus, this match is incorrect.
• Row III: Smallpox (deadly disease with skin blisters) is prevented/treated historically with Vaccines. This is a correct match.
• Row IV: Ulcer (a sore in the stomach's lining) is often caused by H. pylori bacteria and treated with Antibiotics. This is a correct match.

Therefore, Row II incorrectly matches the medical condition with its treatment, making B the correct choice.
