Answer to Question 1

9
Rationale : The pulse is commonly measured from one of the following 9 sites: temporal, carotid, apical, brachial, radial, femoral, popliteal, posterior tibial, or pedal.

Answer to Question 2

1,3,5
Rationale: It is not unusual for people from some cultural or religious backgrounds to believe their dead relatives can see them from heaven, and it often motivates them to follow societal rules. The client who is angry is able to control his emotions enough to avoid exposing his children to the bad feelings between him and his wife. The nurse who washes his hands frequently comes from a culture that promotes the importance of this behavior. These clients would be considered mentally healthy. The client who drinks beer all day most likely has a substance abuse problem, and the client who prefers to be alone does not have the ability to relate to others, so these two clients would be suspected of a mental disorder, but more information would be required in order to determine this definitively.
