6. What word refers to the upper part of the stomach or the rear part of the eye?

Answer: fundus

The word "fundus" is borrowed from the Latin word for bottom. In the stomach, fundus is located just above where the esophagus connects with the stomach. Fundus stores foods that wasn't digested as well as gases released during digestion. Going up the esophagus, fundus is in the back of the eye where it locates the retina and optic disc. Fundus also refers to the upper part of the uterus.
7. What is a place or event where people gather for fun and entertainment?

Answer: funfest

Funfest or funfair is a place/event (such as carnivals and theme parks) where large number of people gather where they do things for the sole purpose of amusement and entertainment, such as playing games and going on rides. Funplex is an indoor place where funfair takes place in. SafariLand is an example of a funplex I have visited.
8. What is the sheaf of nerve fibers that forms white matter in the spinal cord?

Answer: funiculus

As funiculus is the Latin word for "slender rope", it is a slender, rope-like strand of nerve fiber that makes up the white matter component of the spinal cord. Its plural is funiculi.

Going outside of the human body, funiculus means a filamentous stalk that attaches a seed or ovule to the placenta, and a filamentous part of an insect's antenna. Those meanings are alternately known as funicle.
9. What was the Russian unit of weight approx. equal to 410 grams or 0.9 pounds that became obsolete?

Answer: funt

Funt (Russian: Фунт) is essentially a Russian pound that became obsolete in 1924 in favor of the metric system. A funt, when converted to other Russian units of weight, is 32 lots (Russian: лоц) and 1/40 of a pood (Russian: пуд).
10. What is a surgical procedure used to repair the sphincter valve that was weakened by GERD?

Answer: fundoplication

The gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), or simply acid reflux, causes the sphincter, which is a valve between esophagus and stomach, to weaken, causing stomach acid to backtrack into the esophagus, leading to heartburn. Fundoplication, fundo for short, is a surgical procedure used to re-strengthen the sphincter, treating the heartburn. GERD itself can be treated or prevented by taking antacid.
