Answer to Question 1

Correct Answer: 3

Balance is a state of equilibrium in which opposing forces counteract each other, requiring the line of gravity to pass through the center of gravity and the base of support. Balance is the result of proper body alignment.

Answer to Question 2

Correct Answer: 2

The client who is somnolent, with minimal or no response to physical stimulation, requires further assessment with immediate action to reverse the cause. The other assessment findings are normal and do not require further assessment and treatment by the nurse.
