Answer to Question 1

1,2,3
Rationale: Genetic theory: According to this theory, harmful genes activate in late life to stop cell growth and division; aging is programmed by genetic makeup.

Answer to Question 2

4
Rationale: Eclectic approaches use one psychiatric theory or a combination of psychiatric theories to determine what assessment information, interventions, approaches, and evaluation criteria are needed for any given client. An eclectic approach does not indicate indecision or use of interventions that are unsupported by evidence. An eclectic approach does not indicate a nurse is aphilosophical, but rather demonstrates that a range of theories are used to understand the best way to approach assessing and planning care for different clients.
