Answer to Question 1

B
Hormone levels, especially estrogen, are thought to affect sleep patterns and quality, especially in women.

Answer to Question 2

4. Chest percussion

Rationale:
Chest percussion can help clear secretions. Administering the pneumococcal vaccine and educating the client on smoking cessation are important in treating a client with pneumonia, but they would be aligned with a different nursing diagnosis. Clients with pneumonia are encouraged to increase fluid intake, not limit it.
