Answer to Question 1

B
Feedback:
Pleurisy is an inflammation of the pleura, causing a sticking pain on inspiration. It can be caused by conditions such as a lung tumor, tuberculosis, lung abscess, or pneumonia, not a sinus infection.

Answer to Question 2

A
Feedback:
The definition of health and illness, and religion and member responsible for financial decisions are a few of the areas that should be assessed as a part of a cultural assessment. Intellectual level of the client is not part of cultural assessment.
