Answer to Question 1

D
The latent phase ends when the cervix is dilated 4 cm. This is a good time to teach the client because she is usually still fairly comfortable, and this phase can last 17 to 19 hours.

Answer to Question 2

A
Allergic rhinitis (hay fever) causes nasal congestion, sneezing, itching, and headache.
