Answer to Question 1

A

Feedback
A During the first trimester of pregnancy, the organ systems are beginning to develop.
B During the second trimester of pregnancy, fingers and toes are differentiated.
C During the second trimester of pregnancy, the sex of the fetus can be determined.
D During the second trimester of pregnancy, fine hair, called lanugo, covers most of the body of the fetus.

Answer to Question 2

D
Being angry, excessively dependent, and having a passive attitude are all behaviours suggestive of an altered self-concept. The older client, who has lost a spouse and is now demanding exces-sive assistance from a child, is demonstrating an alteration in the integrity stage of his psychoso-cial development.
Accepting one's limitations is not consistent with a disturbance in the integrity stage of psycho-social development.
Verbalizing fear about the surgery is not consistent with a disturbance in the integrity stage of psychosocial development.
Expressing thoughts about one's care is not consistent with a disturbance in the integrity stage of psychosocial development.
