Correct answer: D. Hemorrhoids

  • A. Bulimia
  • B. Ulcer
  • C. Adipose tissue
  • D. Hemorrhoids

Hemorrhoids are swollen or dilated tortuous veins in the anorectal region, often causing discomfort or bleeding. An ulcer is an open lesion rather than a mass of dilated veins, so students may choose ulcer because both can produce rectal bleeding.
