Answer to Question 1

ANS:
1,077 mL
The child with SAIDH is put on a fluid restriction that typically consists of two-thirds of his or her daily fluid maintenance levels. For the 25-kg child, normal daily fluid maintenance is 1,608 mL. Two-thirds of this volume is 1,061 mL

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
Areas of gray matter are found deep in the brain. These areas include the basal ganglia (affect movement), the hypothalamus (maintains homeostasis and regulates blood pressure, heart rate, and temperature), and the thalamus (processes sensory impulses and sends them to the cerebral cortex).
