Answer to Question 1

Ans: C
The normal pupillary response is constriction, and convergence when focusing on a near object. Presence of the red reflex indicates that the cornea, anterior chamber, and lens are free of opacity and clouding. Answer B evaluates the function of each of the eye muscles and cranial nerves. The Snellen chart tests visual acuity.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: A
Often, nurses must select the most important interviewing questions or assessment techniques to use, and perform a focused health assessment based on the client's problem.
