Answer to Question 1

ANS: A, B, C
Diminished tone and slowed peristalsis do not contribute to pain.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: D
Urge urinary incontinence occurs with the physiologic changes of aging. The use of diuretics, increased bladder stimulation from urinary tract infections, and involuntary bladder spasms cause the older adult to have a feeling of urgency and result in incontinence.
