Ans: A, C, D
Feedback:
Cell-mediated immunity protects the body against viral, bacterial, and fungal infections.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: A
Feedback:
Encouraging a fluid intake of at least 2000 mL/day would be appropriate. The nurse should offer fluids such as water, cranberry juice, or prune juice rather than orange juice or other citrus or vegetable juices. Intake and output are usually measured every 8 hours, not every 1 to 2 hours. Urine pH measurements would be appropriate if the client was receiving methenamine or nitrofurantoin.
