Answer to Question 1

B
Postoperative nursing interventions for patients with abdominal hysterectomy focus on monitoring vital signs and preventing urinary retention.

Answer to Question 2

D
Feedback:
Environmental needs to satisfy the basic human need for love because this is a place where one derives pleasure from familiar and comfortable furniture and favorite objects. Large airy windows do not demonstrate any of the basic needs. New stylish furniture demonstrates the basic need of self-esteem. Adjustable track lighting demonstrates the basic need of security.
