Answer to Question 1

B, C, D, F
Hypertension, vomiting, diaphoresis, and cardiac rhythm changes are objective data seen in patients with a myocardial infarction (MI). Pain and nausea are subjective data felt by the patient but not measurable.

Answer to Question 2

D
Feedback:
Irregular shape of moles can be indicative of melanoma. Brown color of moles is a normal finding, and older adults do not necessarily need to bathe daily.
