B)Abdominal surgery

Explanation:
In functional obstruction, the intestine can become adynamic from an absence of normal nerve stimulation to intestinal muscle fibers. For example, abdominal surgery can lead to paralytic ileus. Mechanical obstructions result from a narrowing of the bowel lumen with or without a space-occupying mass. A mass may include a tumor, adhesions (fibrous bands that constrict tissue), incarcerated or strangulated hernias, volvulus (kinking of a portion of intestine), intussusception (telescoping of one part of the intestine into an adjacent part), or impacted feces or barium.

Which trait is not a desirable quality in a primary care physician?
erik [133]
<span>The trait that is not a desirable quality in anyone, let alone a primary care physician is presumptuous. The correct answer is C. Presumptuous means arrogant, impertinent, someone who assumes something without making sure they are correct. It is very desirable for a doctor to be interactive, courteous (=polite), and empathetic (=compassionate), but not presumptuous because nobody likes that. </span>
