Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
People who follow clock time eat, sleep, work, and engage in recreational activities at definite times each day. People who live on linear time eat when they are hungry and sleep when tired, without regard to the clock. The assessment that the patient is obsessive-compulsive cannot be made with the provided information. The report that the patient will complain if medications and treatments are not performed on time cannot be concluded from the information provided.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: D
The most essential component of the environment is oxygen; the next most important need is safety. After these environmental needs have been met, the individual can focus on altering the environment to accommodate comfort and personal taste. The other options are not identified as needs relating to the environment.
