Answer to Question 1

A concept is the basic building block of a theory. A phenomenon is an observable fact that can be perceived through the senses and explained. A conceptual framework is a structure that links global concepts together and represents the unified whole of a larger reality. A conceptual model is the symbolic representation of empiric experience in words, pictoral or graphic diagram, mathematical notations, or physical material.

To assess the apical pulse, the stethoscope should be placed on the fifth intercostal space to the left of the midclavicular line.
