Answer to Question 1

B
Explanation: The root cellul means cell and the suffix -itis, inflammation.

Answer to Question 2

C
Explanation: Filtration removes substances from the bloodstream. Reabsorption is where water and nutrients are reabsorbed to be put back into the bloodstream. Excretion is not a stage of urine production. Secretion is when ammonia, uric acid, and other waste substances are secreted directly into the renal tubule.
