Answer to Question 1

B
The ethical principle of fidelity pertains to the duty to keep one's promise. When Nurse N agreed to keep Patient O's personal information private and confidential, he was following the principle of fidelity. Veracity pertains to truth telling and autonomy pertains to an individual's right to self-determination and respect for individual liberty. Nonmaleficence is the duty to do no harm.

Answer to Question 2

A
A healthy diet should always include green leafy vegetables. Ice cream, cheese and fried foods contain
excess fat. Wheat bread should be eaten instead of white bread.
