Answer to Question 1

C
A simple urinalysis does not require a sterile urine specimen or sample. The laboratory performs urinalysis on a routine or clean-voided specimen or on a specimen obtained from a catheter.

Answer to Question 2

C
Blanching is a test used to assess tissue circulation. When infection occurs, the white blood cell count increases. Tissue healing occurs with replacement of healthy cells and tissues.
