Answer to Question 1

B
Feedback:
The hippocampus functions in learning and long-term memory. The limbic system is located between the cerebrum and the inner brain. (The term limbic literally means pertaining to a margin or edge.) It is largely responsible for maintaining a person's level of awareness. The limbic system includes the hippocampus and the reticular formation. The reticular formation plays a role in allowing sensory input to enter the cerebral cortex. It also governs wakefulness and sleep, through a portion of the reticular formation called the reticular activating system (RAS).

Answer to Question 2

A
Feedback:
State licensing laws have individual variations, but all nurse practice laws state that it is illegal for any nurse to practice nursing for pay without a license. Practice acts differentiate between LPN/LVN and RN licenses. This regulation is called mandatory licensure. The mandatory law designates the functions, duties, and responsibilities of the nurse and the use of the title nurse. Mandatory licensure requires that a nurse cannot perform the functions designated as exclusive to nursing without proper licensure in that state. Practicing nursing without a license is called permissive licensure, but rarely occurs today.
