Answer to Question 1

B
Development is an interaction of biological, sociological, and psychological forces. It occurs gradually and refers to changes in skill and capacity to function. These changes are qualitative in nature and difficult to measure in exact units. Growth is the measurable aspect of a person's in-crease in physical dimensions. Measurable growth indicators include changes in height, weight, teeth and bone, and sexual characteristics. Maturation is the biological plan for the predictable milestones for growth and development. Physical growth and motor development are a function of maturation. The latency stage of development is part of Freud's psychoanalytic model of per-sonality development. In the latency stage, Freud believed that the sexual urges from the earlier phallic stage are repressed and channeled into productive activities that are socially acceptable.

Answer to Question 2

D
Critical thinkers use language precisely and clearly. If you do not obtain a professional interpreter when communicating with patients who speak a different language, you are taking the risk of miscommunicating important information. When you use incorrect terminology, jargon, or ter-minology with which a patient is unfamiliar, or vague descriptions, communication is ineffective.
