Answer to Question 1

C
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.

Answer to Question 2

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