Answer to Question 1

D
Feedback
A Both the spleen and mucous membranes are secondary organs of the immune
system that act as filters to remove debris and antigens and foster contact with T
lymphocytes.
B Gut-associated lymphoid tissue is a secondary organ of the immune system. This
tissue filters antigens entering the gastrointestinal tract.
C The skin and lymph nodes are secondary organs of the immune system.
D The thymus controls cell-mediated immunity (cells that mature into T
lymphocytes). The bone marrow controls humoral immunity (stem cells for B
lymphocytes).

Answer to Question 2

D
Feedback
A Pouring water over the perineum may stimulate voiding. It is easy, noninvasive,
and should be tried early on.
B Hot tea or other fluids ad lib is an easy, noninvasive strategy, that should be tried
early on.
C If the woman is anticipating pain from voiding, pain medications may be helpful.
Other nonmedical means could be tried first, but medications still come before
insertion of a catheter.
D Invasive procedures usually are the last to be tried, especially with so many other
simple and easy methods available (e.g., water, peppermint vapors, pain pills).
