Propolis Cognitive Error Autopsy

Official Correct Choice:
Option B: Liver
Concept: Gross anatomical orientation of kidneys.

Solution: The large right lobe of the liver sits superior to the right kidney, displacing the right kidney downward relative to the left kidney.

Why other options are incorrect:
  • Option A: The heart is located superiorly in the thoracic cavity above the diaphragm.

  • Option C & Option D: The pancreas and stomach are situated in the left upper quadrant of the abdomen.

Quality & Fidelity Assurance: Every question on BeambePrep is rigorously curated against the official PMDC syllabus with zero filler, zero out-of-syllabus content, and zero typos. When an authentic past paper originally contained a historical mistake or ambiguity from the examining board (such as UHS or NUMS), BeambePrep faithfully reflects the original paper while detailing the nuance and scientific consensus in the autopsy above.
