Answer to Question 1

A
The nurse would be suspicious that the adolescent has been a victim of abuse, if the adolescent refuses to have a physical exam. Adolescents who have been abused may make complaints of feeling sick to the stomach. These feelings are a result of the memories of the abuse and being touched by another individual. Other signs and symptoms might include feelings of nausea, pain with no stimuli, and nervous twitching.

Answer to Question 2

D
An example of rehabilitative services for the client with schizophrenia would include providing productive activity and occupational therapy. Rehabilitation involves increasing the client's capacity, both for social interactions and for productive activity (including gainful employment when feasible).

Your skin wrinkles if you stay in the bathtub a long time because the outermost layer of skin (which consists of dead keratin) swells when it absorbs water. It is tightly attached to the skin below it, so it compensates for the increased area by wrinkling. This happens to the hands and feet because they have the thickest layer of dead keratin cells.

Though Candida and Aspergillus species are the most common fungal pathogens causing invasive fungal disease in the immunocompromised, infections due to previously uncommon hyaline and dematiaceous filamentous fungi are occurring more often today. Rare fungal infections, once accurately diagnosed, may require surgical debridement, immunotherapy, and newer antifungals used singly or in combination with older antifungals, on a case-by-case basis.

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.
