Final Answer :
D
Explanation :
Right jugular vein distended is the only entry without spelling errors.Correct spelling demonstrates competency and attention to detail.Misspelled words lead to confusion.For example,often words sound the same but have different meanings such as accept and except or dysphagia and dysphasia.Misspellings and incorrect use of terms alters the intended meaning.Not only is abdomen misspelled,but an abdomen cannot be fractured.
