Answer to Question 1

D
Specializing in care of newborns is a long-term goal because the nurse must first complete nursing school and obtain specialty training to fulfill the goal. Studying every night is a short-term goal because it will occur starting today. Finding a babysitter is a short-term goal that needs to be met soon. Dressing professionally is a short-term goal that will be ongoing throughout the student's career. It is short term because it will begin, one assumes, in the near future.

Answer to Question 2

A, C, D
Normal lung volumes and capacities vary with body size, age, and exercise level. Volumes and capacities are higher in men, in large people, and in athletes. Race does not influence normal lung volumes and capacities.
