Answer to Question 1

D
Overweight is defined as a body mass index of 25 to 30.

Answer to Question 2

2. Empirical

Rationale:
Empirical knowing ranges from factual, observable phenomena to theoretical analysis. Empirical knowledge is systematic and helps to describe, explain, and predict phenomena. Aesthetic knowledge is the art of nursing and is expressed by nurses in their creativity and style in meeting the needs of clients. Personal knowledge is concerned with the knowing, encountering, and actualizing of the concrete, individual self. Creativity is part of aesthetic knowledge.
