Answer to Question 1

Ans: C
Enacted law includes all bills passed by legislative bodies; nurse practice acts in the
various states are examples of enacted law at the state level. A nurse practice act is not an
example of constitutional law or common law. Judicial law consists of decrees or judgments
from the courts.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: D
Certification in a particular nursing specialty has the potential to increase a nurse's
opportunities in that field. Passion, networking, and research may all be of some benefit, but
certification is more likely to create tangible career opportunities.

Although the Roman numeral for the number 4 has always been taught to have been "IV," according to historians, the ancient Romans probably used "IIII" most of the time. This is partially backed up by the fact that early grandfather clocks displayed IIII for the number 4 instead of IV. Early clockmakers apparently thought that the IIII balanced out the VIII (used for the number 8) on the clock face and that it just looked better.
