Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
Diminished colonization with Lactobacillus that occurs as a result of prolonged antibiotic treat-ment increases the risk for vaginal infections, such as vaginosis. Clostridium difficile and Candida albicans occur in the colon, not the vagina. Streptococcus overgrowth will occur in the mouth.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
Collectins are produced by the lungs. Collectins are not associated with the kidneys, bowel, or integumentary system.
