Answer to Question 1

A, B
As a nurse, you need to understand stress to help your clients cope effectively and adapt to the stressors of illness and caregiving. In addition, you will encounter many stressful situations in your own career, so you must develop healthful ways of responding. Nurses cannot alone balance the stress for a patient but rather assist the patient in identifying the stressors and adaptive responses that will fit for the patient. There are many adaptation strategies, but not all strategies will help all patients, as each patient is different.

Answer to Question 2

A, B
Nursing research is the systematic, objective process of analyzing phenomena of importance to nursing. Its purpose is to develop knowledge about issues that are important in nursing. An organized set of related ideas and concepts is a theory. Data reported in numbers is a quantitative research design used in nursing research however not all nursing research is quantitative research. Much of nursing research can be qualitative as well.

Although the Roman numeral for the number 4 has always been taught to have been "IV," according to historians, the ancient Romans probably used "IIII" most of the time. This is partially backed up by the fact that early grandfather clocks displayed IIII for the number 4 instead of IV. Early clockmakers apparently thought that the IIII balanced out the VIII (used for the number 8) on the clock face and that it just looked better.

Your skin wrinkles if you stay in the bathtub a long time because the outermost layer of skin (which consists of dead keratin) swells when it absorbs water. It is tightly attached to the skin below it, so it compensates for the increased area by wrinkling. This happens to the hands and feet because they have the thickest layer of dead keratin cells.
