Answer to Question 1

C
Feedback:
The nurse should be aware that some medications have reactions with certain foods. It is not necessary that medications be taken with bland diet for easier absorption; the nurse should know if the client's diet interferes with the effectiveness of the medication. It is not necessary to alternate medications with similar functions. The nurse need not know clients' likes and dislikes about certain food products, which may affect medication absorption.

Answer to Question 2

D
Feedback:
Homeostasis is the physical and emotional equilibrium and involves an individual's cumulative chemical reactions, physical condition, and emotional status.
Chemistry is the science concerned with the structure and composition of matter and the chemical reactions these substances can produce. Physics is the science of the laws of matter and their interaction with energy. Chemistry is the basis for homeostasis, the dynamic interactions between anatomy and physiology.

People who have myopia, or nearsightedness, are not able to see objects at a distance but only up close. It occurs when the cornea is either curved too steeply, the eye is too long, or both. This condition is progressive and worsens with time. More than 100 million people in the United States are nearsighted, but only 20% of those are born with the condition. Diet, eye exercise, drug therapy, and corrective lenses can all help manage nearsightedness.
