Answer to Question 1

C
Feedback:
The nurse should identify recent influenza as the physical causative factor of stress. Anxiety related to peer pressure or finances is a psychological causative factor of stress.

Answer to Question 2

A
Feedback:
When chronic tonsillitis is present, the client experiences difficulty in swallowing. Tonsillectomy is generally advised for enlarged, bacteria-loaded tonsils. Headache, swelling, and pain behind the ear, and difficulty in breathing unless sitting upright are not symptoms of tonsillitis.
