Answer to Question 1

Correct Answer: 1
Micturition is the act of urinating or voiding. The best response is to direct the patient to a restroom. This term has nothing to do with medication, sterile catheters, or driving safety.

Answer to Question 2

Correct Answer: 1
Reabsorption may be active or passive. Substances move from the blood into the filtrate, then are reclaimed into the blood. The other comments indicate incorrect comprehension about kidney reabsorption.
