Answer to Question 1

D
Explanation: If the urine is accumulating, it is not being excreted, therefore it is retained.

D
Explanation: Construct the term utilizing the information provided in the question: the root tendon plus the suffix -itis, which means inflammation. No combining vowel is needed, as the suffix begins with a vowel.
