Question 5 • 2026-2027 EDGE Human Anatomy and Physiology A

Due to an illness, Fiona’s kidney has stopped functioning. She is currently receiving dialysis treatment every week, but her kidney will not function again. What might be the next option for her?

Answer
A
medication
B
transplant
C
rest

Explanation

Because Fiona’s kidney will not recover its function, dialysis can help filter her blood but does not replace the kidney permanently. A kidney transplant may be the next treatment option if she is eligible and a suitable donor kidney is available. Medication or rest would not restore the kidney’s function.
