Answer to Question 1

Answer:2
Rationale: Adequate intake of fluids and nutrients promotes the intactness of the oral mucousal membrane tissue,which is the desired outcome for an impaired oral mucous membrane problem.Lemon and glycerin may dry the oral mucous membrane,which is not desirable. Administration of antibiotics or topical analgesics are medical interventions that might be performed but do not ensure that impaired tissue will be resolved.

Answer to Question 2

4
Explanation: 4. This is the highest priority because vaginal birth is impossible with a transverse lie. Labor should not be allowed to continue, and a cesarean birth is done quickly.
