Answer to Question 1

D
Body mass index is a measurement that determines whether a person's weight in kilograms is appropriate for height in meters.

Answer to Question 2

D
Many health care agencies, schools, and communities have educational programs to prepare for nuclear, chemical, or biological attack and other types of disasters. Nurses play an active role in emergency preparedness. Workplace hazards include violence, harassment, and ergonomics. A person who acts professionally is conscientious in actions, knowledgeable in the subject, and re-sponsible to self and others. There is an ongoing global nursing shortage, which results from in-sufficient qualified registered nurses (RNs) to fill vacant positions and the loss of qualified RNs to other professions.
