Explanation / Answer

1.True

Explanation: Pregnancy testing is based on the level of hormone hcg that is Human chorionic gonadotropin hormone which is released by the placenta after implantation. Therefore only a few drops of urine is necessary to check the presence of this hormone in urine. Also checking urine in the morning is advised as the levels of hcg hormone in the urine would be concentrated as the female hasn't urinated before and thus the accuracy of the test would be greater.

2.flase

Explanation : Urine tests are only conducted after medical examination and case taking. Only after suspicion of urine infection or medical issues where urine test is required it is indicated.

3.True

Explanation: Nitrite screening test is used to identify the presence of the niritite bacteria in the urine that are cause of urinary tract infections.
