Answer to Question 1

D
Hypospadias is a condition in which the urethral opening is on the ventral surface of the penis and often associated with undescended testes. Surgery is required. The nurse must teach catheter care and reassure caregivers that normal urination will be restored and sexual function will not be threatened.

Answer to Question 2

B
Insulin production slows, and thyroid changes may lower the basal metabolic rate and cause an increased risk for developing type 2 diabetes mellitus.

Many people have small pouches in their colons that bulge outward through weak spots. Each pouch is called a diverticulum. About 10% of Americans older than age 40 years have diverticulosis, which, when the pouches become infected or inflamed, is called diverticulitis. The main cause of diverticular disease is a low-fiber diet.

Every flu season is different, and even healthy people can get extremely sick from the flu, as well as spread it to others. The flu season can begin as early as October and last as late as May. Every person over six months of age should get an annual flu vaccine. The vaccine cannot cause you to get influenza, but in some seasons, may not be completely able to prevent you from acquiring influenza due to changes in causative viruses. The viruses in the flu shot are killed—there is no way they can give you the flu. Minor side effects include soreness, redness, or swelling where the shot was given. It is possible to develop a slight fever, and body aches, but these are simply signs that the body is responding to the vaccine and making itself ready to fight off the influenza virus should you come in contact with it.
