Answer to Question 1

A
Feedback:
Some studies show that as many as 70 of women who develop gestational diabetes will develop type 2 diabetes within 10 years after delivery.

Answer to Question 2

4
Rationale: The nurse needs to understand the role of macro- and micronutrients in maintaining health and preventing disease. A client who understands that nutrients come from foods has beginning knowledge of nutrition. There are no insignificant nutrients, nor is a vitamin supplement required for good health. A good diet should not be hard work; it can be implemented with careful planning.
