Answer to Question 1

B
The no-longer supported disengagement theory posed that older people withdrew from society as they aged and that this was a mutually agreed upon behavior. The result would be isolation as the person became focused solely on him- or herself. Fear, anxiety, or malnutrition could be a further consequence, but isolation and withdrawal from society was expected according to this theory.

Answer to Question 2

A
Respect is shown best by acquiring knowledge regarding the preferences held by a patient; using the patient's surname is preferred unless the patient directs the staff to do otherwise. The other options are too narrow in focus to establish a mutually respectful relationship.

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.
