Answer to Question 1

B
Feedback
A Hyperventilation will produce signs of respiratory alkalosis.
B The transition phase of labor is often associated with an abrupt change in
behavior, including increased anxiety and irritability.
C If she is in the transitional phase of labor, analgesia may not be appropriate if the
birth is near.
D This change of behavior is an expected occurrence during the transition phase.

Answer to Question 2

A, D, E
Feedback
Correct Peer pressure (including impressing peers) is a factor contributing to
adolescent injuries. During early to middle adolescence, children feel that
they are exempt from the consequences of risk-taking behaviors; they
believe that negative consequences only happen to others. Feelings of
invulnerability (It can't happen to me) are evident in adolescence.
Impulsivity places adolescents in unsafe situations.
Incorrect Mastering the environment is the task of young school-age children.
Emancipation is a major issue for the older adolescent. The process is
accomplished as the teenager gains an education or vocational training.
