Answer to Question 1

1, 2, 3
Rationale: Dehydration is a risk for athletes who participate in sports which include strenuous physical activity. Arranging a class for school athletes, including information for all students, and discussing fluid needs with the physical education staff would all be good interventions for the nurse. The nurse should not have to be present at all sports events.

Answer to Question 2

C
Feedback:
Cobalt is an essential component of vitamin B12.

This condition is progressive and worsens with time. More than 100 million people in the United States are nearsighted, but only 20% of those are born with the condition. Diet, eye exercise, drug therapy, and corrective lenses can all help manage nearsightedness.
