Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
When a nurse uses the collected data to determine whether an ethical dilemma exists, the data are being analyzed. Planning is done after the data have been analyzed. Evaluation occurs once the outcome has been achieved. Assessment is the data collection phase.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: D
Elective abortion is an ethical dilemma because two opposing courses of action are available. Abortion does not require third-party consent. The Supreme Court has not ruled on when life begins. Abortion laws are clear concerning a women's constitutional rights.
