Question

4 match the condition with its definition
endometriosis
uterine fibroids
candidiasis

choices
i overgrowth of candida
ii inflammation of the organs in the pelvis
iii cell of the inner lining layer of the uterus start to grow elsewhere in the body, such as the ovaries or fallopian tubes
iv non-cancerous tumors

Explanation:

• Endometriosis: The definition "cell of the inner lining layer of the uterus start to grow elsewhere in the body, such as the ovaries or fallopian tubes" matches endometriosis, as endometriosis involves endometrial tissue growing outside the uterus.
• Uterine fibroids: The definition "non - cancerous tumors" fits uterine fibroids, as fibroids are benign (non - cancerous) growths in the uterus.
• Candidiasis: The definition "overgrowth of candida" is correct for candidiasis, as it is an infection caused by an overgrowth of the Candida fungus.
• The remaining definition "inflammation of the organs in the pelvis" would match a condition like pelvic inflammatory disease, but for the given conditions:
• Endometriosis → cell of the inner lining layer of the uterus start to grow elsewhere in the body, such as the ovaries or fallopian tubes
• Uterine fibroids → non - cancerous tumors
• Candidiasis → overgrowth of candida

Answer:

• endometriosis: cell of the inner lining layer of the uterus start to grow elsewhere in the body, such as the ovaries or fallopian tubes
• Uterine fibroids: non - cancerous tumors
• candidiasis: overgrowth of candida
