Answer to Question 1

B
The most common food allergens in children are peanuts, milk, eggs, and wheat. Seafood aller-gies are common in older children and adults. Allergies to barley, oats, tree nuts, strawberries, and oranges occur less commonly.

Answer to Question 2

4
Rationale: A BP of 125/83 would be considered within normal range. A fasting glucose of 240 requires close monitoring and possible testing to determine if the patient has diabetes, since a diagnosis should not be made on a one-time variation in lab results. Obesity should be determined based on the client's height, weight, and BMI rather than weight alone. If Mr. G has a history of poorly controlled fasting blood sugar (> 100 mg /dl), an abdominal circumference of > 35 inches, and triglycerides > 150 mg/dl he would meet the diagnostic criteria for metabolic syndrome.
