Explanation:
Barrett's esophagus is a clinical condition characterized by a change in the esophageal epithelium due to repeated exposure to gastric juices, by reflux, or other mucosal irritants.
Corrosive agents are considered to produce a change in the epithelium called metaplasia, associated with symptoms of esophageal burning and pain.
The ICD-10 code for Barrett's esophagus is K 22.7.
The procedure, which consists of a radiological examination of the upper digestive tract with the use of barium contrast has a code of 74240, which describes this type of radiological examination.

Answer:
A. Inhibit FSH secretion.
Explanation:
Inhibin is a hormone secreted by the granulosa cells in the ovaries of women and the Sertolli cells in men. The main function of inhibin, as they name says, is to inhibit the secretion of FSH by the anterior pituitary gland. Inhibin is also produced by the Sertolli cells in the testes of men, and it is released in the blood when the sperm count is too high. FSH causes the Sertoli cells of the testes to begin the process of spermatogenesis in the testes. Therefore, releasing inhibin would cause a negative feedback and stop the production of sperm.
