Answer to Question 1

X-linked recessive

Answer to Question 2

C
This is an example of nonmaleficence, an obligation to exercise due care in professional practice to prevent unintentional harm. Beneficence is an ethical principle focusing on promoting the welfare of others; however, it is not the best answer. Although autonomy is an independent action on the part of the nurse, it is not the best answer. Paternalism involves interference with the liberty of another in which the interference is justified by promoting the well-being of that individual.
