Answer to Question 1

1,2,3,5
Rationale: The respiratory system increases breathing to try to blow off excess acid.

Answer to Question 2

1,2,5
Rationale: The challenge of a vegetarian diet is assuring complete protein intake to avoid deficiencies. This challenge is best met by eating a variety of different protein sources and combining foods that contain amino acids, such as grains and legumes, to provide all types of essential amino acids. Adequate iron intake is best met with foods such as broccoli, raisins, watermelon, spinach, and pinto beans, because the vegetarian does not receive the iron normally found in meat sources. Lettuce, celery, and onion are not good sources of iron. Calcium supplements are not needed if the client eats foods with good supplies of the electrolyte, such as green, leafy vegetables. An appointment with the provider is recommended for dietary teaching when a change in diet is planned.
