Answer to Question 1

A, B, C, D
Labored breathing may be indicated by expiratory grunting, inspiratory elevation of shoulders and ribs, tensing neck and shoulder muscles, and substernal retraction. Productive cough is not a sign of labored breathing.

Answer to Question 2

A, B, C
Urinating regularly helps to prevent prolonged exposure to toxins. Allowing the bladder to over-fill can allow the walls to become hyperelastic. A full bladder may also strain the urinary sphincters. Urine does not change character in the bladder and does not press on the colon.
