Answer to Question 1

C
Feedback:
The development of secondary sexual characteristics is of particular concern to many adolescents. Precocious (early) and delayed sexual development may occur. These conditions are particularly distressing for adolescents because peer pressure is so significant at this developmental stage. Mittelschmerz is painful ovulation and dysmenorrhea is pain on menstruation. Bulimia nervosa is an eating disorder.

Answer to Question 2

B
Feedback:
If a client with a pacemaker notices any symptoms of dizziness or lightheadedness, the nurse should instruct him or her to move at least 6 feet away from the source of any electrical interference. Active or passive range-of-motion exercises help prevent complications, but do not prevent dizziness or lightheadedness caused by electrical interference. A client with a pacemaker need not particularly use knee-high stockings or socks with elastic tops. It is unadvisable to ask the client to ignore symptoms; the client should be taught how to count the pulse and to report any deviation or symptoms at once.

Every flu season is different, and even healthy people can get extremely sick from the flu, as well as spread it to others. The flu season can begin as early as October and last as late as May. Every person over six months of age should get an annual flu vaccine. The vaccine cannot cause you to get influenza, but in some seasons, may not be completely able to prevent you from acquiring influenza due to changes in causative viruses. The viruses in the flu shot are killed—there is no way they can give you the flu. Minor side effects include soreness, redness, or swelling where the shot was given. It is possible to develop a slight fever, and body aches, but these are simply signs that the body is responding to the vaccine and making itself ready to fight off the influenza virus should you come in contact with it.
