While the nurse is explaining the functioning of the urinary system, the client asks the nurse, How much urine has to be in the bladder before I feel the urge to urinate? The nurse's most accurate response is:
 
  1. At least 500 mL.
  2. Around 1 liter.
  3. 250-450 mL.
  4. About 750 mL.

Question 2

The nurse is explaining to a client how fluid and electrolytes get from one body compartment to another. Characteristics of transport mechanisms include:
 
  1. Osmosis is the passage of water from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration.
  2. Diffusion occurs when molecules move across a semipermeable membrane from an area of higher solute concentration to an area of lower solute concentration.
  3. Filtration is the process by which water and solutes move across capillary membranes pushed by osmotic pressure.
  4. ATP enables the movement of magnesium and potassium ions across cell membranes.

Did you know?

Although the Roman numeral for the number 4 has always been taught to have been "IV," according to historians, the ancient Romans probably used "IIII" most of the time. This is partially backed up by the fact that early grandfather clocks displayed IIII for the number 4 instead of IV. Early clockmakers apparently thought that the IIII balanced out the VIII (used for the number 8) on the clock face and that it just looked better.
