Answer to Question 1

2. Improvement in vision.

Rationale:
For the client with an eye injury, the goal of care is to preserve vision and prevent injury. The client recovering from a penetrating eye injury is able to see shadows and movement, which would indicate an improvement in vision. Deterioration in vision would be a lack of sight. The client's ability to see shadows and movement would not indicate poor nutrition or the need for artificial tears.

Answer to Question 2

2. An immunization for rabies

Rationale:
Receiving an immunization for rabies is an example of artificially acquired passive immunity. Receiving tetanus and immunoglobulin are also examples but would not be used in the case of an animal bite. Mother's breast milk is another example of passive immunity, but would not be used in the case of an animal bite.
