The answer is C: meatotomy.

Explanation for each option:

A. Ureterotomy: This is an incision into the ureter, which is the duct that carries urine from the kidney to the bladder. It is not related to the urethral opening.

B. Urethrostomy: This refers to the creation of a new opening in the urethra, typically to divert urine flow. It is not specifically about enlarging the existing urethral opening.

C. Meatotomy: This is the correct term for an incision that enlarges the urethral opening (meatus) to relieve urethral stenosis.

D. Pyelotomy: This is an incision into the renal pelvis of the kidney, usually to remove a stone or relieve an obstruction. It is not related to the urethral opening.

E. Cystotomy: This is an incision into the urinary bladder. It is not related to the urethral opening.

Summary: The correct term for an incision that enlarges the urethral opening to relieve urethral stenosis is meatotomy.

Answer the following questions about the molecule shown below. a) Using proper naming nomenclature, number the carbon atoms in the ring with numbers 1-6 (starting with 1 on the carbon the chlorine is attached to). Then provide the complete name for the molecule. b) Fill in the substituents for the two possible chair conformations for this molecule. The substituent numbers from the structure above should match the substituent numbers on the chair structures below. Pay close attention to whether a substituent is axial or equatorial.

Determine whether the given value is a solution of the given equation. Is -6 a solution of 5.5 y=-33 ? Select the correct choice below and fill in the answer box to complete your choice. (Simplify your answer. Type an integer or a decimal.) A. -6 is not a solution of 5.5 y=-33 because replacing y with -6 and simplifying results in =-33, which is a false statement. B. -6 is a solution of 5.5 y=-33 because replacing y with -6 and simplifying results in =-33, which is a true statement.
