Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
Nephrons, the essential components of renal function, make up the renal pyramid. The renal pyramids form the renal medulla, which make up the renal parenchyma.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A
The sizes of these instruments are measured on the French (Fr) scale, the diameter in millimeters (mm) multiplied by three. The smallest ureteral catheter is 1 mm in diameter, or 3 Fr; the largest is 14 Fr.
