What does the term "urination" refer to?

  1. Discharge of feces

  2. Discharge of saliva

  3. Discharge of urine

  4. Discharge of stomach acid

The correct answer is: Discharge of urine

The term "urination" specifically refers to the process of discharging urine from the urinary bladder through the urethra to the outside of the body. This biological function is essential for maintaining the body’s fluid and electrolyte balance, as well as for the elimination of waste products that result from metabolism. Understanding this term is crucial for a CNA, as it relates to patient care and monitoring. The other terms listed do not pertain to this process; they describe different bodily functions associated with digestion and secretion rather than urination.
