Answer to Question 1

B

Answer to Question 2

Reduced glomerular filtration rate and excretory times limit the ability to remove drugs or toxic substances. Assess for adverse effects of medications. Older adults usually will have sensory losses, reduced numbers of red blood cells, and increased rigidity of the arterial walls.
