Answer to Question 1

B
Feedback
A Hormone levels are assessed by their concentration in the blood.
B Tanner stages are used to assess staging of secondary sex characteristics at
puberty.
C Growth hormone secretion tests are not associated with Tanner staging.
D Tanner stages are not associated with hyperthyroidism.

3
Rationale:
1. Instead of decreasing, weight increases, because of retention of fluids.
2. Bradycardia is a serious sign, and can indicate impending cardiac arrest.
3. Tachycardia is a sign of congestive heart failure (CHF), because the heart attempts to improve cardiac output by beating faster.
4. Blood pressure does not increase in CHF.
