Answer to Question 1

B
Autonomy is essential to professional nursing and involves the initiation of independent nursing interventions without medical orders. Accountability means that you are professionally and le-gally responsible for the type and quality of nursing care provided. To obtain licensure in the United States, RN candidates must pass the NCLEX-RN examination administered by the in-dividual State Boards of Nursing to obtain a nursing license. Beyond the NCLEX-RN, some nurses choose to work toward certification in a specific area of nursing practice.

Answer to Question 2

B
As people age, nutritional requirements of kilocalorie needs decrease due to decrease in metabolism.
