Answer to Question 1

A
Feedback:
Adverse effects in women include masculinization effects, hirsutism, and deepening of the voice. A woman using anabolic steroids would not expect it to result in joint immobility, obesity, or hypotension.

Answer to Question 2

D
Feedback:
Only 25 of the total number of nephrons is necessary to maintain healthy renal function so most patients must have experienced nephron loss of at least 75 to have signs and symptoms of kidney failure. The other options are not correct.
