Answer to Question 1

D
Explanation: Cyst/o means bladder and -pexy means surgical fixation; therefore, cystopexy means surgical fixation of the bladder. -otomy means cutting into; hence, cystotomy means cutting into the bladder. -plasty means surgical repair, so cystoplasty means surgical repair of the bladder. -ectomy means surgical removal; thus, cystectomy means surgical removal of the bladder.

Answer to Question 2

C
Explanation: Plasmapheresis removes plasma from the body and replaces it with donor plasma. Autologous transfusion is storing a patient's own blood until it's needed. Phlebotomy is also called venipuncture. Plasma aspiration removes plasma.
