Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
Not only do nurses often provide continuous care, in some states nurses are trained as sexual as-sault examiners who gather forensic evidence. Nurses provide victims with privacy, respect, and assurance of confidentiality. The nurse would not be providing long-term therapy for the survivor or have the responsibility to find the rapist.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A
Primary prevention refers to those interventions aimed at preventing the occurrence of disease, injury, or disability. Being an advocate for nonviolence demonstrates primary prevention. Sec-ondary prevention refers to interventions aimed at early detection and screening. Tertiary preven-tion refers to interventions aimed at treatment and rehabilitation. Primary care is not a level of prevention.

Your skin wrinkles if you stay in the bathtub a long time because the outermost layer of skin (which consists of dead keratin) swells when it absorbs water. It is tightly attached to the skin below it, so it compensates for the increased area by wrinkling. This happens to the hands and feet because they have the thickest layer of dead keratin cells.
