A student is learning about pelvic inflammatory disease (PID).
Which information about PID is correct?
An episode of mild PID can decrease the possibility of a successful pregnancy by 80%.
PID has not been associated with an increased risk of ectopic pregnancy.
Contracting this infection increases the risk of cervical cancer.
This inflammation results in permanent changes to the ciliated epithelium of the fallopian tubes. –
correct answer-PID results in permanent changes to the ciliated epithelium of the fallopian tubes. The
two students have clarified the information on PID.
Which factor increases the risk for ovarian cancer after the age of 40 years?
Prolonged lactation
Multiple pregnancies
Oral contraceptive use
Never having children –
correct Answer-Never having children
Interruption of ovulatory cycles appears to have a protective function against developing ovarian cancer.

Predominantly through infected cervical and vaginal secretions during the birth process –
correct Answer-Gonorrhea is found in body fluids such as semen and vaginal secretions. It can be
transmitted to an infant primarily through contact with the birth canal and affected secretions.
Vital capacity (VC) decreases throughout the life span. This is due to the expected aging change in the
