Implementation, the fourth step in the nursing process, involves performing the actions that have been planned to meet the client's goals and delegating tasks to personnel who are competent to perform the tasks.

Answer to Question 2

B
Euthanasia refers to the intentional act or lack of action that causes a merciful death of someone suffering from either a terminal illness or incurable condition.
