Place the following in the correct sequence from the initial formation of urine to its elimination from the body: 1) Major calyx, 2) Minor calyx, 3) Nephron, 4) Urethra, 5) Ureter, 6) Collecting duct

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: Urine forms in the nephron (3), flows to the collecting duct (6), minor calyx (2), major calyx (1), ureter (5), and urethra (4) (A). This sequence (3,6,2,1,5,4) traces filtrate from filtration to excretion, making A correct.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The Indiana pouch requires self-catheterization every 4-6 hours (B), a key teaching point. No ostomy appliance (A) or barrier (D) is needed, and catheterization isn't painful (C), making B the focus.

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: Exposure to the chemicals involved with working as a hair stylist and in smoking both increase the risk of bladder cancer, and the nurse should assess whether the patient understands this risk. The patient is not at increased risk for renal failure, pyclonephritis, or kidney stones.

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The glomerulus (A) is the capillary network in the nephron, filtering blood from the afferent arteriole into the efferent arteriole. Corpuscles (B) is a broader term, renal tubules (C) reabsorb and secrete, and Bowman's capsule (D) encases the glomerulus, making A the precise answer.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: Protein (B) in urine (proteinuria) is abnormal, signaling glomerular damage. Urea (A), water (C), and ammonia (D) are normal components, though RBCs (E in original) are also abnormal; B is the best single answer here.
