Answer to Question 1

A
Nightingale's actions to improve the health care of soldiers on the battlefield and the poor and infirm
in London was directed at vulnerable populations. The primary thrust of this advocacy is directed at
population groups.

Answer to Question 2

C
Values perform important functions in our lives and the way in which we view and interact with the
world around us. Some important functions of values are that they provide a set of rules to live by;
guide actions and decisions; give direction to people's lives and help them to solve problems (not
hinder problem solving); influence how individuals perceive and react to others; help determine basic
attitudes concerning personal, social, and philosophical issues; reflect an individual's identity; and
provide a basis for self-evaluation.
