Answer to Question 1

Answer: A

Morality refers to issues that are either right or wrong. In the situations provided, the nurse who provides a terminally ill client a meal with food that he should avoid but requested would demonstrate a conflict with morality. The nurse is going against the right decision, which would be to not provide the client with the foods; however, the client is terminally ill and is requesting foods that he enjoys. The other situations would not involve the same question of morality.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: B

Changes in verbalization can be indicative of increasing anxiety. Mild anxiety causes an increase in questioning. Moderate anxiety results in voice tremors and pitch changes. At severe levels, communication is difficult to understand and trembling can occur. Communication may not be understandable at all when the client reaches the panic stage.
