Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
Wilms tumor is found in the kidneys. Its location is not associated with the ureters, bladder, or the urethra.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A
Proteinuria accompanies nephrotic syndrome. The BUN may be elevated. Foamy, not bloody, urine accompanies nephrotic syndrome. Sodium loss does not accompany nephrotic syndrome.
