Answer to Question 1

B
Learning is the purposeful acquisition of new knowledge, attitudes, behaviors, and skills. Complex patterns are required if the patient is to learn new skills, change existing attitudes, transfer learning to new situations, or solve problems. A new mother exhibits learning when she demonstrates how to bathe her newborn. A nurse presenting information and a primary care provider handing a pamphlet to a patient are examples of teaching. A family member listening to a lecture does not indicate that learning occurred; a change in knowledge, attitudes, behaviors, and/or skills must be evident.

Answer to Question 2

C

Feedback
A The hypothalamus controls appetite.

C Endorphins are hormones that produce a sense of well-being and reduce pain.
D The hypothalamus is responsible for sleep regulation and mood states.
