Answer to Question 1

C
Feedback:
Marijuana has not been shown to have teratogenic effects on the fetus. Alcohol, nicotine and cocaine do affect the fetus.

Answer to Question 2

B
Feedback:
The nursing diagnosis most appropriate for an adolescent with obesity is ineffective individual coping by overeating. The risk for low self-esteem could be due to acne or other physical body changes in adolescence. The patient may or may not have anxiety related to normal growth and development. The patient is not demonstrating health-seeking behaviors.
