Answer to Question 1

D
A spiritual assessment helps the nurse to explore any perceptions or concerns a patient has. However, remember that it is important for nurses not to impose their personal value systems on a patient. This is particularly true when the patient's values and beliefs are similar to the nurse's because it then becomes very easy to make false assumptions.

Answer to Question 2

B
Painful stimuli produce nerve impulses that travel along afferent peripheral nerve fibers. Pain stimuli travel through nerve fibers in the spinothalamic tracts, cross to the opposite side of the spinal cord, and then travel up the spinal cord. This process is known as transmission.
