Answer to Question 1

C
Feedback:
The development of secondary sexual characteristics is of particular concern to many adolescents. Precocious (early) and delayed sexual development may occur. These conditions are particularly distressing for adolescents because peer pressure is so significant at this developmental stage. Mittelschmerz is painful ovulation and dysmenorrhea is pain on menstruation. Bulimia nervosa is an eating disorder.

Answer to Question 2

B
Feedback:
If a client with a pacemaker notices any symptoms of dizziness or lightheadedness, the nurse should instruct him or her to move at least 6 feet away from the source of any electrical interference. Active or passive range-of-motion exercises help prevent complications, but do not prevent dizziness or lightheadedness caused by electrical interference. A client with a pacemaker need not particularly use knee-high stockings or socks with elastic tops. It is unadvisable to ask the client to ignore symptoms; the client should be taught how to count the pulse and to report any deviation or symptoms at once.

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.
