Answer to Question 1

Mobility
Mobility refers to an ability to move about freely.

Answer to Question 2

D
Diaphoresis often goes undetected, and thus insensible fluid loss is not always evident until a patient develops fluid and electrolyte imbalances. This individual often is already compromised in relation to hydration, fluids, and electrolytes; therefore, the nurse needs to carefully monitor the patient's fluid balance status. Some nausea, disorientation, and anxiety can occur, but they are not as critical as insensible fluid loss.
