Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
Asking questions about participation in the religious traditions of family enables the nurse to assess a person's heritage. Simply asking about one's religion, smoking history, or health history does not reflect heritage.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A
Assimilation is the process by which a person develops a new cultural identity and becomes like members of the dominant culture. This concept does not reflect heritage consistency. Biculturalism is a dual pattern of identification; acculturation is the process of adapting to and acquiring another culture.
