Answer to Question 1

D
The patient who has a TURP may have continuous closed bladder irrigation or intermittent irrigation to prevent occlusion of the catheter with blood clots, which would cause bladder spasms.

Answer to Question 2

A
Feedback:
The belief that enlightenment is found in individual meditation is a characteristic of Buddhism. Buddhists often are vegetarians. Cereal, refined sugar, and leavened bread are not specifically identified as being omitted from the diet of a person who practices Buddhism.
