Answer to Question 1

D
After a nurse assesses a patient and determines the nursing diagnoses, a plan of action is developed which becomes the nursing plan of care.

Answer to Question 2

2. I have signed up for a stress management class..

Rationale:
The client understands that reducing anxiety can reduce hyperventilation and respiratory alkalosis. Eating bananas is more appropriate for the client at risk for metabolic alkalosis who is on diuretics. Breathing faster will increase hyperventilation. Taking too many antacids is associated with metabolic alkalosis.
