Answer to Question 1

A
A. The legs are washed before the feet.
B. The eyes are washed before the face.
C. The abdomen is washed before the legs.
D. The extremities are washed before the back.

Answer to Question 2

A
Sitting upright provides full expansion of the lungs and allows better visualization of symmetry of upper body parts. The supine position maximizes the nurse's ability to assess pulse sites. The prone position is used only to assess extension of the hip joint. The dorsal recumbent position is used for abdominal assessment because it promotes relaxation of abdominal muscles.

There can actually be a 25-hour time difference between certain locations in the world. The International Date Line passes between the islands of Samoa and American Samoa. It is not a straight line, but "zig-zags" around various island chains. Therefore, Samoa and nearby islands have one date, while American Samoa and nearby islands are one day behind.
