Answer to Question 1

2, 3, 4

Rationale 1: Diabetes is not a long-term consequence of untreated hypertension.
Rationale 2: Stroke, kidney failure, and cardiac arrest are all long-term consequences of untreated hypertension.
Rationale 3: Stroke, kidney failure, and cardiac arrest are all long-term consequences of untreated hypertension.
Rationale 4: Stroke, kidney failure, and cardiac arrest are all long-term consequences of untreated hypertension.
Rationale 5: Diabetes insipidus is not a long-term consequence of untreated hypertension.

Global Rationale: Stroke, kidney failure, and cardiac arrest are all long-term consequences of untreated hypertension. Diabetes and diabetes insipidus are not long-term consequences of untreated hypertension.

Answer to Question 2

1

Rationale 1: Hypertension is the consistent elevation of arterial blood pressure.
Rationale 2:Hypotension is incorrect because hypertension is the consistent elevation of arterial blood pressure.
Rationale 3:Tachycardia is incorrect because hypertension is the consistent elevation of arterial blood pressure.
Rationale 4:Bradycardia is incorrect because hypertension is the consistent elevation of arterial blood pressure.

Global Rationale: Hypertension is the consistent elevation of arterial blood pressure. Hypotension is incorrect because hypertension is the consistent elevation of arterial blood pressure. Tachycardia is incorrect because hypertension is the consistent elevation of arterial blood pressure. Bradycardia is incorrect because hypertension is the consistent elevation of arterial blood pressure.
