Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
Urinary output greater than 2500 mL/day is polyuria. Insufficient urine output is oliguria, whereas absence of urine is anuria. Enuresis is commonly known as bedwetting at night.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A, B, D
Patients who will undergo colonoscopy testing should have a clear liquid diet the day before the exam, so cream of chicken soup and coffee creamer should not be consumed. Foods with red food coloring should also be avoided prior to colonoscopy.
