Answer to Question 1

C
A transsexual wears clothing from the opposite sex and assumes the roles of that sex. A homosexual's orientation is toward same-sex partners. A bisexual is oriented towards both men and women.

Answer to Question 2

D
Often when a patient dies, nurses develop personal feelings of loss and sadness for the family. Nurses feel frustration, anger, guilt, sadness, or other emotions. Taking time to assess your own feelings will be a valuable tool in asking whether your personal sadness is related to caring for the patient or to unresolved personal experiences from the past. Stress management techniques may be helpful.
