Answer to Question 1

A
Feedback:
Viagra improves blood flow into the penis and that is its only effect. It does not improve stamina or sensation. Research has indicated it has no effect on women's sexual response. To say only that Viagra does nothing would not provide adequate information for the patient.

Answer to Question 2

A, C, D
Feedback:
The kidneys regulate the composition of body fluids by balancing the levels of the key electrolytes, secreting or absorbing these electrolytes to maintain the desired levels. Body fluid volume is controlled by diluting or concentrating urine. Erythropoietin helps to increase red blood cell production, which helps increase oxygen to the organs. Increased blood pressure does not change the volume or composition of body fluids.
