ANS: C
The right mainstem bronchus has a
more downward slope and is less
an- gled than the left bronchus.
Therefore, it is more likely to be a
site of aspiration and is a more
likely site for endotra- cheal tubes
that are advanced too far.


ANS: B
The apices of the lungs are 4
cm above the first rib.




ANS: A
The number of each intercostal
space corresponds to that of the rib
immedi- ately above it.




ANS: B
The angle of Louis, the junction of
the manubrium and the sternum,
corre- sponds to the second rib, the
