Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
Together, the glomerulus and Bowman's capsule are called the renal corpuscle. The combination of these structures is not identified as the capsule, the medulla, or the pyramid.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
Mechanical ventilation can result in a proinflammatory state that may contribute to the develop-ment of chronic lung disease, such as BPD but not bronchiolitis or pneumonia. Respiratory dis-tress might have led to the intubation, but BPD is the diagnosis.
