by patent foramen ovale

2. Image of object focusing in front of retina is typical of:

Myopia (short sightedness, near-sightedness)
Hyperopia (hypermetropia - long-sightedness, far-sightedness)

7. If 20% of cardiac output 5 l/min flows through kidneys, and 20 % of the plasma volume flowing through kidneys is filtered to glomerules, then calculate glomerular filtration rate (take hematokrit value 40 %). Calculated GFR value is:

2 ml/min
20 ml/min
100 ml/min
120 ml/min

8. Choose the false answer: Crohn disease

Can affect any segment of gastrointestinal tract from oral cavity to anus, but most frequently it is affecting the terminal ileum or proximal colon
