The term flocculent for describing urine means ____.

  1. Clear

  2. Dark yellow

  3. Cloudy

  4. Odorous

The correct answer is: Cloudy

The term "flocculent" for describing urine means cloudy. Flocculent urine appears to have particles suspended in it, giving it a murky or cloudy appearance. This can indicate the presence of sediment or other substances in the urine that are not dissolved completely. Clear urine would not have any visible particles or cloudiness, dark yellow would describe the color of the urine, and odorous would pertain to the smell of the urine, which are not the defining characteristics of flocculent urine.
