Answer to Question 1

2
Carbohydrates should make up 45 to 65 of our calories. Carbohydrates are consumed in the form of monosaccharides and polysaccharides. This is what the nurse should include in the instructions to the client. Glucose, fructose, and sucrose are monosaccharides. Fats and proteins are not carbohydrates. Cellulose is a nondigestible form of a carbohydrate.

Answer to Question 2

1, 3, 5
Assessment for acute appendicitis includes the use of the Blumberg's sign, iliopsoas muscle test, and the obturator muscle test. Bowel sounds are not affected by acute appendicitis. Referred pain to the right shoulder would indicate a liver dysfunction.
