Answer to Question 1

A
In-service education programs are instruction or training provided by a health care agency or in-stitution designed to increase the knowledge, skills, and competencies of nurses and other health care professionals employed by the institution. Some roles for RNs in nursing require advanced graduate degrees, such as a clinical nurse specialist or nurse practitioner. There are various edu-cational routes for becoming a registered nurse (RN), such as associate, diploma, and baccalau-reate. Continuing education involves formal, organized educational programs offered by univer-sities, hospitals, state nurses' associations, professional nursing organizations, and educational and health care institutions.

Answer to Question 2

C
During young and middle adulthood, nutrient requirements of healthy adults change very little except during pregnancy, lactation, or repair and illness.
