Answer to Question 1

bacilli

Bacilli are rod-shaped bacteria.

Answer to Question 2

A
Uric acid is an end product of protein metabolism, and levels may be elevated in renal failure and associated with increased dietary intake of purine-containing foods. Normal findings are 250 to 750 mg/24 hr (normal diet). A value of 900 mg/24 hr indicates an elevated uric acid level. Sources of purines include beef, liver, and sardines. Purine-rich foods like beef should be limited to small portions or eliminated completely from the patient's diet. Additionally, fatty foods like avocados aid the kidneys in retaining uric acid. Skim milk, yogurt, potatoes, and pasta are low-purine food choices that the patient can eat.
