Answer to Question 1

B
The social zone extends the greatest amount of distance from an individual in personal space and touch. It is a distance of 1 to 4 m. Permission is not needed for touch in the social zone.
The personal zone extends from 45 cm to 1 m.
The consent zone of touch requires permission.
The vulnerable zone is in the consent zone of touch. Because the vulnerable zone implies that special care is needed, permission is required.

Answer to Question 2

C
Discussing follow-up dietary needs immediately after surgery when the client is experiencing discomfort is an error in timing and relevance. The client is less likely to be able to pay attention and comprehend instruction when feeling pain, and immediately after surgery, discussing fol-low-up dietary needs would seem irrelevant.
Pacing has to do with the speed of conversation. The nurse's decision to discuss dietary needs immediately after the client's surgery is not an example of an error in pacing.
Intonation is the tone of voice used. The nurse's decision to discuss dietary needs immediately after the client's surgery is not an example of an error in intonation.
Denotative meaning is when a single word can have several meanings. The nurse's decision to discuss dietary needs immediately after the client's surgery is not an example of an error in de-notative meaning.
