Answer to Question 1

A
Inviting residents of the apartment complex to an education program on mental illness is the most appropriate strategy. Primary prevention activities refer to activities aimed at reducing the incidence of a mental disorder within a population. The emphasis lies in targeting population groups at risk of developing the mental disorder and environmental factors that may contribute to it. By inviting residents to the education program, the nurse is providing an activity directed at the target population with the intent to reduce the risk of mental illness within the aggregate of the population.

Answer to Question 2

C
Selye's General Adaptation Syndrome includes three major stages. The individual's initial response involves an alarm reaction, then a stage of resistance, and a final stage of exhaustion. The first and third stages are broken down further to include shock and countershock.
