Answer to Question 1

D

Feedback
A Incorrect. Rest occurs during sleep.
B Incorrect. Sleep is an extension of rest.
C Incorrect. Rest can occur in brief periods and in extended cycles during sleep.
D Correct. Sleep provides an important survival tool to rest, restore, and rejuvenate the body.

Answer to Question 2

B
Poor cognitive functioning, depending on others for ambulation, living in a residential facility, and having four chronic illnesses are factors that increase the risk of chronic dehydration. An overuse of diuretic agents is more likely to cause acute dehydration. Dry mucous membranes are reliable indicators of chronic dehydration. Fluid loss from vomiting leads to acute dehydration.
