Answer to Question 1

Answer: 3
Explanation: 3. Exposure to secondhand smoke can lead to exacerbations of asthma in children. The nurse is using the role of surveillance to determine factors in the home environment that could trigger asthma attacks. Pesticides may or may not contribute to the development of asthma. Peeling paint and fuel source for cooking are not factors in asthma attacks.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: 2
Explanation: 2. A once thriving neighborhood that is now run-down, with a higher amount of lower socioeconomic residents and higher unemployment will see an effect on health through the decreasing of the neighborhood quality. A variety of factors will impact health, from a rise in crime to other factors that include potentially more environmental toxins, crowding, etc., than more affluent areas. Natural environment refers to the flora and fauna of an area. Built environment refers to buildings and spaces created by people. Ecologic environment is the interaction of the natural, built, and social environments.
