Answer to Question 1

A
Feedback:
Considering the work environment, prevention of accidents is the major goal of an industrial nurse. The duties of a school nurse include screening for common disorders and supervising the administration of immunization. A nurse is not required to check the quality of medications.

Answer to Question 2

A
Feedback:
Melatonin is thought to participate in the maintenance of the sleepwake cycle. In sunlight, sympathetic nerve fibers release norepinephrine, which inhibits the secretion of melatonin and results in wakefulness. In darkness, the lack of norepinephrine stimulates the secretion of melatonin, resulting in sleepiness. Erythropoietin, gastrin, and somatostatin hormones are not responsible for the client's condition. Erythropoietin is a hormone that stimulates peripheral stem cells in the bone marrow to produce red blood cells. Gastrin is a hormone that is released after eating; it causes the stomach to produce more acid. Somatostatin is a pancreatic hormone that controls the rate of nutrient absorption into the blood stream.
