Answer to Question 1

Risk factors for development of renal calculi include uric acid crystals in urine, frequent bacterial urinary infections, prolonged immobility or bed rest, and a parathyroid gland tumor. Another risk factor includes inadequate fluid intake.

Answer to Question 2

swallow; speak
