Answer to Question 1

A, D
The frontal and temporal lobes of the cerebrum play a key role in the reception of messages and speech. The occipital lobe is predominantly involved with vision. The basal ganglia influence integration of physical movement as well as some thoughts and emotions, whereas the parietal lobe is involved with sensory reception.

Answer to Question 2

B
The correct comment prevents the nurse from being manipulated by the patient. The nurse should address what happened, along with the expectations. The remaining options do not attempt to address the patient's manipulation of the situation.
