Answer to Question 1

C

Answer to Question 2

B
Feedback:
Physical symptoms may suggest malnutrition; however, they cannot be considered diagnostic. Edema of the lower extremities is a better indicator versus the hands and forearms, both liver and spleen enlargement is suggestive, and speech is usually not affected. Poor wound healing is the better indicator because it shows a lack of proper nutrition to allow for proper healing.
