Answer to Question 1

C
For patients with renal failure, the best sources of protein are high-quality proteins. These are mostly animal proteins, but also include soy. Most vegetable protein has a lower biologic value. Patients with renal failure are able to digest whole proteins and do not need extra essential amino acids.

Answer to Question 2

D
Retention of excessive amounts of waste products of protein metabolism in the blood (including urea) is known as uremia. Oliguria is low output of urine. Jaundice is buildup of bilirubin in the blood due to liver disease or failure. Nephritis is an inflammation of the kidney.
