Answer to Question 1

D
Feedback:
The AMDRs are broad ranges for each energy nutrient, expressed as a percentage of total calories consumed.

Answer to Question 2

2

Rationale: This client is most at risk for developing osteoporosis due to poor bone mineral density based upon her inadequate food intake and intense exercise. The most likely nursing diagnosis would be impaired physical mobility due to osteoporosis. Impaired skin integrity, ineffective breathing pattern, and impaired tissue perfusion are the least likely diagnoses among these choices.
