Analyze Question 38

The scenario describes a test where a small amount of "purified protein derivative" (PPD) is injected intradermally (under the skin of the forearm). The reaction is read 48 to 72 hours later. This is the standard procedure for the Mantoux tuberculin skin test, used to screen for tuberculosis (TB) exposure. Therefore, the correct option is the tuberculin (TB) skin test.

Analyze Question 39

The prompt asks for the medical term that means "surgical repair of the bronchus".

• The combining form for bronchus is "broncho-".
• The suffix for surgical repair is "-plasty".

Combining these word parts yields "bronchoplasty".
