Answer to Question 1

A
A cue is information that a nurse obtains through use of the senses.

Answer to Question 2

A
Generally teaching and learning begin when a person identifies a need for knowing or acquiring an ability to do something. Teaching is most effective when it responds to a learner's immediate needs. The teacher identifies these needs by asking questions and determining the learner's interests.
