Answer to Question 1

B
The difference between the systolic and diastolic blood pressures is called the pulse pressure. A pulse pressure should be between 30 and 40 mmHg.

Answer to Question 2

C
A client's cultural orientation to space and time also affects his or her attitude toward care. Clients may believe that certain spaces or objects belong to them, and the distance people prefer to maintain from others is culturally determined; this idea is known as territoriality (interpretation of personal space). It is important for a nurse to know what personal space is acceptable for members of different cultural groups.
