Answer to Question 1

B
Feedback:
Prolonged use of high doses may cause potentially life-threatening conditions, placing the patient at risk of death. Conditions such as peliosis hepatis, hepatic neoplasms, and hepatocellular carcinoma are often seen with high-dose street use of these drugs. Renal stones, cirrhosis, and malignant hyperthermia are not associated with the use of anabolic steroids.

Answer to Question 2

A
Feedback:
The nephron widens at the distal convoluted tubule, then flows into the collecting ducts, which meet at the renal pelves. The collecting ducts do not meet in the loop of Henle, Bowman's capsule, or distal convoluted tubule.
