Answer to Question 1

4
Rationale: The nurse should determine that the client has a knowledge deficit related to substance use disorders when the client compares marijuana to smoking cigarettes and claims it to be harmless. Cannabis is the second most widely abused drug in the United States.

Answer to Question 2

B
Agnosia is an inability to recognize familiar objects or people; affect is an individual's expression of emotion; apraxia refers to the loss of an individual's ability to carry out purposeful movements, even when having the desire and physical ability to do so; and anhedonia is the inability or decreased ability to experience pleasure in life.
