Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
Joint degeneration, which can occur with inflammatory and noninflammatory disease, is marked by changes in articular cartilage combined with overgrowth of bone at the articular ends. Degenerative changes commonly affect weight-bearing joints. Synovial fluid is normal in noninflammatory diseases. Inflammatory joint disease (e.g., arthritis) is characterized by inflammation or destruction of the synovial membrane and articular cartilage and by systemic signs of inflammation.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A
Time-management skills are most related to homework assignment completion. Time-management techniques include developing lists of prioritized tasks. Routine health visits are important but do not directly affect ability to complete homework. Speech and other developmental aspects need to be developed if the child is to be successful, but skill development will not directly reduce homework-related stress. Assertiveness includes skills for helping individuals communicate effectively regarding their needs and desires, but it does not help with homework assignments.
