Answer to Question 1

C
Feedback:
One 2020 National Health Goal for cultural diversity is to increase the proportion of mothers who breastfeed their babies in the early postpartum period from a baseline of 43.5 to a target of 60.6. Actions to enhance disease prevention, prevent accidents, and comply with health promotion activities do not support the 2020 National Health Goals for cultural diversity.

Answer to Question 2

A
Feedback:
The characteristics of the palpated mass suggest that it is a benign mass, most likely a fibroadenoma. However, since other breast lesions have similar characteristics, the lump needs to be evaluated via mammography. Hormone receptor status is used to determine if a malignant mass is stimulated to grow by estrogen or progesterone. A fine-needle aspiration may be done later on if there is reason to suspect a malignancy. Genetic testing for the BRCA genes would be done to determine a woman's risk for breast cancer, but this would not be done next.
