Answers of the Quiz

Ans 1 : (b) In the lower right abdomen

The appendix is a small, tube-shaped organ located in the lower right portion of the abdomen, where the small intestine and large intestine (colon) meet. The function of the appendix is unknown. Many believe it is a vestigial organ (one we used to need but no longer do), while some scientists theorize it may store beneficial bacteria that can aid in digestion.

Ans 2 : (b) Inflammation of the appendix

Appendicitis is defined as inflammation of the appendix. If the appendix becomes infected with bacteria, viruses, or a fungus it can become inflamed, resulting in appendicitis. It can sometimes be difficult to diagnose appendicitis because the symptoms of appendicitis and pain in the abdomen can often resemble other health conditions that affect nearby organs.
