Answer to Question 1

A, B, C, E
Semen content includes a thick, fructose-filled fluid from seminal vesicles, prostaglandins for sperm motility, thin, milky secretions from the prostate gland, and spermatozoa. Mucus from the bulbourethral gland is not part of the semen.

Answer to Question 2

B
The older patient is especially at risk for problems of electrolyte imbalance, fluid overload, or dehydration when undergoing preparation for diagnostic tests that require a fasting state and/or bowel cleansing. Metabolic acidosis can occur when there is a large volume loss of bowel con-tent. Bowel preparation causes diarrhea and may cause fatigue; bowel preparation should not cause dyspnea.
