Answer to Question 1

D
Regular exercise does tend to increase effective use of glucose and fatty acids; this would be the primary benefit for the diabetic client.
The primary benefit for the diabetic client is the effect of decreasing blood glucose levels.
While exercise will decrease breath load, the primary effect for the diabetic client is decreasing blood glucose levels.
While exercise will decrease resting heart rate, the primary effect for the diabetic client is de-creasing blood glucose levels.

Answer to Question 2

B
Embarrassment about sexuality often stems from lack of understanding about what is normal behavior. The best way to alleviate that anxiety is to explain why the behavior occurs. Telling the parent that a child will grow out of it can create more anxiety because the parent will be wondering when the behavior should stop. Sexual development is a continual process that begins in infancy and continues into young adulthood. Both male and females must establish gender identity, and self-exploration is normal for both genders.
