Answer to Question 1

Answer:3
Rationale: Tachycardia is a sign of congestive heart failure because the heart attempts to improve cardiac output by beating faster.Bradycardia is a serious sign and can indicate impending cardiac arrest.Blood pressure does not increase in CHF,and the weight,instead of decreasing,increases because of retention of fluids.

Answer to Question 2

1,2,4,5
Rationale 1: Decisions about contraception should take into consideration any contraindications the patient might have.
Rationale 2: Religious or moral beliefs often impact which choices are acceptable.
Rationale 3: The partner's belief in the effectiveness has no bearing on the actual effectiveness.
Rationale 4: Personal motivation needs to be considered when deciding on a contraceptive method.
Rationale 5: Plans for future pregnancy should be considered before determining whether sterilization should be performed.

It is tightly attached to the skin below it, so it compensates for the increased area by wrinkling. This happens to the hands and feet because they have the thickest layer of dead keratin cells.
