Answer to Question 1

Ans: A
Of the six classes of nutrients, three supply energy (carbohydrates, protein, and lipids), and three are needed to regulate body processes (vitamins, minerals, and water).

Answer to Question 2

Ans: A
The nurse should use the Pain Assessment in Advanced Dementia (PAINAD) scale, which was developed for cognitively impaired clients. The Wong-Baker FACES scale is best for children and clients who are culturally diverse. Nurses generally use a numeric scale, a word scale, or a linear scale to quantify the pain intensity of adult clients who can express their pain intensity in words, numbers, or linear fashion with the help of the respective scales.
