Answer to Question 1

A, B, C
Feedback:
Patients with bladder infection most commonly experience urinary frequency, urgency, and burning on urination (dysuria). Patients with pyelonephritis also experience flank pain and temperature elevation.

Answer to Question 2

A
Feedback:
The left ventricle is much larger because it has to pump strongly enough to circulate blood through the entire body. The right ventricle pumps blood only to the lungs, which are nearby.
