Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
A patient may be defined as an individual recipient of health care services.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
Sister Roy's theory states that a patient takes in stimuli, processes the information, and produces a response. Because of the changing environment, the patient responds favorably or unfavorably to the changes. Adaptations may be rapid, slow, sensory, motor, or sensorimotor.
