Answer: (C) Not crossed the basement membrane, so it can be surgically removed with little chance of growing back.

Explanation: Pap smear, also known as a Pap test, is a diagnostic process to test for cancer of the cervix or cervical cancer.

A Pap smear involves collecting cells from your cervix to check forabnormal cells, which is often cause by Human papillomavirus (HPV).

However, if the test is positive and the surgeon diagnosed "cancer in situ of the cervix.", it established that the tumor (proliferated cells) hasn't grown beyond the base of the membrane. So, the abnormal cells can be removed through surgery and further cell outgrow might not be experienced.

Answer: C. It means the tumor has not crossed the basement membrane of the womb (cervix) and can be surgically removed with a very low risk of growing back or spreading to other areas

Explanation: Cancer is said to be "in situ" when abnormal cells(cancerous cells) are still in the original place they were formed and has neither spread to other regions nor moved from the same position. These types of cancer are well contained and can be removed surgically to prevent them from being malignant thereby spreading to other regions.

Cancer in situ is usually referred to as stage 0(zero) cancer as it has not invaded nearby regions which makes it highly treatable which usually involves surgically removing the tumor and sometimes radiation.

Fantom [35]

Answer:

c. a sole proprietorship because Cal is a sole proprietor.

Explanation:

Eat-Less files a suit against Cal, alleging in part that he is a sole proprietor, but his enterprise should be deemed a different form of business. Cal's enterprise should most likely be considered a corporation because Cal is a sole proprietor and his enterprise is likely to be considered as sole proprietorship.

Evaluate two different roles the Catholic Church played during the Middle Ages.
Rashid [163]

During the Middle Ages, the Catholic Church held a lot of political power. The Pope was the one who was sent requests to legitimize royal blood, baptisms, etc. Furthermore, he was the one who blessed war-ships, etc. (if you recall the pope blessing the Spanish fleet of ships that went to fight England during the Protestant Revolution. The Pope could essentially make or break a royal court.

Secondly, the Catholic Church established many monasteries for monks and nuns, and pilgramages were widely popular in the Middle Ages. Hope this helps :)
