Answer to Question 1



Answer to Question 2

A
The older adult population often expresses somatic complaints rather than openly verbalizing emotional distress. You may observe the anxious older adult complaining of an upset stomach, inability to sleep, fatigue, or increased need to urinate.

Daylight saving time is used in some islands, but not in others—further shifting the hours out of sync with natural time.
