Answer to Question 1

B
Often, a bulimic has a body weight that is normal or even slightly above average. Pica is a disorder in which the individual is eating abnormal substances. Obese individuals are above normal weight, and individuals with anorexia nervosa have less than normal weight.

Answer to Question 2

C
The use of five axes requires assessment beyond diagnosis of a mental disorder and includes relevant medical conditions, psychosocial and environmental problems, and global assessment of functioning. The DSM-IV-TR does not include treatment plans or nursing diagnoses. It does not use specific biopsychosocial theories.

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.
