Answer to Question 1

B, D, E
Any condition (e.g., pain, fatigue) that depletes a person's energy also impairs his or her ability to learn, so the session should be postponed until the pain is relieved and the patient is rested. Postpone teaching when an illness becomes aggravated by complications such as a high fever or respiratory difficulty. A mild level of anxiety motivates learning. When patients are ready to learn, they frequently ask questions. When the patient enters the stage of acceptance, the stage compatible with learning, introduce a teaching plan.

Answer to Question 2

C
Lower-intensity activities should be done more often, for longer periods of time, or both.
The activity does not have to be continuous; benefits can be realized with short bouts of activity (10 minutes minimum) over the course of the day.
Answer b is inaccurate; 1000 to 1400 calories may be easily expended each week.
All types of activity can be applied in an exercise plan; activities do not have to be formal exer-cises.
