Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
The average daily excretion of urine for a 4-year-old child is 600 to 700 mL.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
Urine output is determined by calculating the difference in weight between the wet diaper and a dry diaper. One gram is equivalent to one milliliter of output. 47 - 2.5 = 44.5 grams = 44.5 mL of urine.
