Answer to Question 1

D
Advocacy is when the nurse works on behalf of the client by providing him with the tools needed to make decisions. It is especially important to be an advocate for clients with mental health disorders because it often is difficult for them to make informed decisions. Insight refers to the ability to see intuitively, self-awareness is looking into and analyzing oneself, and empathy encompasses the ability to understand and enter into another person's emotions. All of the options listed are skills needed if mental health care workers are to practice effectively.

Answer to Question 2

Alzheimer's disease
The disease was discovered in 1907 . Pathological findings include abnormal tangles of nerve fibers in the brain, degenerated nerve endings, and shrunken brain tissue.
