Answer to Question 1

C
Feedback:
The arteries are muscular, rigid, resistance tubes of the cardiovascular system that carry blood away from the heart. The veins are capacitance tubes that carry blood to the heart. Capillaries connect arteries and veins.

Answer to Question 2

C
Feedback:
Bethanechol is prescribed for nonobstructive urinary retention and neurogenic bladder. The appropriate outcome for this patient would be improved bladder function. This drug causes pupillary constriction and increased secretions. This drug would not increase blood pressure. However, it could cause hypotension in the older patient.
