Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
The UAP would be able to position the client for the procedure. Only the nurse has the ability to witness the consent form and assess allergies and pain within the nursing scope of practice.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
There needs to be a certain level of body fat and weight to maintain regular menstrual cycles. The client has only indicated that she has increased her workouts. There is no indication that she has anorexic or bingeing and purging behaviors.
