Answer to Question 1

D
Feedback:
Release of urine from the body is micturition. When tubules reach their threshold, they excrete the excess amount of each substance into urine. This maximum amount of a substance is called the renal threshold for that substance. Nocturia is waking up to void at night. Stress incontinence is involuntary voiding on actions such as sneezing or coughing.

Answer to Question 2

B
Feedback:
It is important for a nurse to understand normal behavior in a child to distinguish between normal and abnormal behavior. An understanding of normal behavior is necessary before the nurse can recognize abnormal behavior. The nurse need not understand the child's normal behavior specifically to promote bonding between the child and her family. Bonding is a part of the child's psychosocial development during infancy. Play during child development encourages peer cooperation, interaction, and sharing.
