Answer to Question 1

B
Feedback:
The endocrine system's ability to regulate body activities decreases with aging. Choices A, C, and D are not true statements about aging and the endocrine system.

Answer to Question 2

B
Feedback:
Nurse healers are able to protect their interactions with patients from distraction. They give their patients their full, undivided attention. Recording the window problem in a notepad, using the telephone to report the cracked window, or interrupting the patient does not give the patient full attention.
