Answer to Question 1

3. Spiritual health

Rationale:
The family and client believe the client will recover and that their faith and divine intervention will sustain them. This is evidence of spiritual health. The family may or may not be denying the client's health status. The family is not demonstrating conflict. The family may be a good support system to the client.

Answer to Question 2

B
Zinc aids in the absorption of vitamin A. Copper and iron are needed for hemoglobin formation. Iodine is the basic component of thyroid hormones.
