Answer to Question 1

D
Nurses should be sensitive to the effect of noise on clients' rest and recovery and take precautions to reduce noise pollution that may lead to sensory overload.

Answer to Question 2

B
Tachycardia is an abnormally elevated heart rate, greater than 100 beats per minute in adults. Bradycardia is a slow rate, less than 60 beats per minute in adults; 120 to 160 beats per minute is a normal heart rate for an infant. The normal heart rate for an adult is 60 to 100 beats per minute.
