Answer:

4. "If I get constipated, I will use a suppository."

Explanation:

Radical prostatectomy is the surgery indicated to treat a patient with localized prostate cancer, that is, when the disease is confined within the prostate and within the limits of the prostate capsule. More than 70% of patients treated exclusively by radical surgery no longer suffer from the disease, and it is indicated only to treat prostate cancer and not recommended with prophylactic character, ie to prevent its onset. This type of surgery does not affect bowel function, so the statement "If I get a cold, I'll use a suppository." made by the patient shows that this patient needs more education about radial prostatectomy.

Which statement best describes the adrenal glands and the thyroid?
denpristay [2]

Answer:

The answer is D.

Explanation:

The best strategy for the "which statment best describes xyx" multiple choice questions is to first rule out the ones that are false (in this case A because the thyroid is not located in the brain) and then pick the one that would be the most informative statment to say to someone who knows nothing about xyx. D is the most informative because it specifies the functions of both structures and says the function in simple terms for one. By the way, ova is female egg horomone.
