Answer to Question 1

C
Semicomatose (response C) is not a level of consciousness. It is a poorly defined and hard to identify state. The four stages of consciousness are alert, lethargic, stuporous, and comatose.

Answer to Question 2

A
An authoritarian leader makes the decisions in the work environment. Responses B and D are examples of a democratic leadership style. Response C is a laissez-faire example, in which the nursing assistants are trusted to make their own decisions regarding breaks and lunch times.
