Answer to Question 1

3
1. Incorrect. A breastfeeding mother need add only 200 to 500 extra calories to her diet to provide extra nutrients for the infant.
2. Incorrect. This is true only if she doesn't drink alcohol, limits coffee to no more than two cups (caffeine in chocolate, tea, and some sodas, too), and reads the herbal tea ingredients carefully.
3. Correct. Large weight loss would release fat-stored contaminants into her breast milk. It would also likely involve eating too little and/or exercising too much.
4. Incorrect. She needs her rest, but moderate exercise is healthy.

Answer to Question 2

3
1. Incorrect. Although anyone might have a genetic disorder, certain disorders appear more often in certain ethnic and racial groups.
2. Incorrect. Genetic health care is highly individualized because treatments are based on the phenotypic responses of the individual.
3. Correct. Nurses should be prepared to help with a variety of stress reactions from a couple under threat of genetic disorder.
4. Incorrect. Individual nurses at any facility can take a genetic history, though the larger facilities might have better support services.

Early clockmakers apparently thought that the IIII balanced out the VIII (used for the number 8) on the clock face and that it just looked better.
