What is characterized by inflammation of the glomeruli, usually due to a streptococcal or Staphylococcus infection?

Choice A rationale

Ulcerative colitis and Crohn’s disease are both types of inflammatory bowel disease, a term used to describe conditions that cause chronic inflammation of the digestive tract.

Choice B rationale

While Crohn’s disease is a type of inflammatory bowel disease, volvulus is a condition where a segment of the intestine twists upon itself, causing bowel obstruction.

Choice C rationale

Intussusception is a serious condition in which part of the intestine slides into an adjacent part of the intestine, and ulcerative colitis is a type of inflammatory bowel disease. However, intussusception is not considered an inflammatory bowel disorder.

Choice D rationale

Intussusception and volvulus are both conditions that can cause bowel obstruction, but they are not considered inflammatory bowel disorders.

Choice A rationale

Lower left quadrant pain is a typical pain associated with diverticulitis.

Choice B rationale

Sharp, colicky, periumbilical pain is not typically associated with diverticulitis.

Choice C rationale

Lower right quadrant pain is not typically associated with diverticulitis. It is more commonly associated with conditions like appendicitis.

Choice D rationale

Upper right quadrant abdominal pain radiating into the groin is not typically associated with diverticulitis.
