Answer to Question 1

A
Feedback:
An action of the anterior lobe of the pituitary gland includes controls of bone and tissue growth. The action of the middle lobe of the pituitary gland increases skin and hair pigmentation. Two actions of the posterior lobe of the pituitary gland are raising blood pressure and promoting water reabsorption in kidney tubules.

Answer to Question 2

D
Feedback:
The duration of time for which the client requires admission determines whether he can be admitted into an extended healthcare facility. Because the client will require admission for an extended period of time, he can use an extended healthcare facility. An acute care facility can be used if the client's condition is very serious and requires a high level of nursing care or continuous monitoring.
