Answer to Question 1

B
Spermatocele is a benign nontender cyst containing fluid and sperm on the epididymis or the rete testis.

Answer to Question 2

B
The vastus lateralis muscle is the site of choice for all ages when administering an IM injection because there is no major blood vessels or nerves nearby. Positioning for the client includes lying flat or supine with knee slightly flexed.
