Answer to Question 1

D
A phenomenon is an observable fact that can be perceived through the senses and explained. A grand theory is composed of concepts representing global and extremely complex phenomena. A paradigm is a particular viewpoint or perspective. A metaparadigm is the unifying force in a discipline that names the phenomena of concern to that discipline.

Answer to Question 2

A
Bradypnea is respiratory rate of 10 or fewer breaths per minute. Eupnea refers to respirations that are easy with a normal rate of breaths per minute that are age-specific. Hypoventilation is characterized by shallow slow respirations. Hyperventilation is characterized by deep rapid respirations. Tachypnea is a respiratory rate greater than 24 breaths per minute.
