A client is admitted with acute glomerulonephritis. The nurse inspects the client's urine and expects to find:

1. Tea-colored urine.
2. Orange-colored urine.
3. Clear yellow urine.
4. Green-colored urine.


Tea-colored urine.

Rationale: The client will exhibit hematuria, or blood in the urine, and the urine will have a tea-colored appearance. Orange-colored urine is associated with the use of antibiotics or chemotherapy drugs. Clear yellow urine is a normal finding in a urinalysis. Green-colored urine would indicate disorders associated with high calcium levels.
