Answer to Question 1

A
Feedback:
Some studies show that as many as 70 of women who develop gestational diabetes will develop type 2 diabetes within 10 years after delivery.

Answer to Question 2

4
Rationale: The nurse needs to understand the role of macro- and micronutrients in maintaining health and preventing disease. A client who understands that nutrients come from foods has beginning knowledge of nutrition. There are no insignificant nutrients, nor is a vitamin supplement required for good health. A good diet should not be hard work; it can be implemented with careful planning.

Every flu season is different, and even healthy people can get extremely sick from the flu, as well as spread it to others. The flu season can begin as early as October and last as late as May. Every person over six months of age should get an annual flu vaccine. The vaccine cannot cause you to get influenza, but in some seasons, may not be completely able to prevent you from acquiring influenza due to changes in causative viruses. The viruses in the flu shot are killed—there is no way they can give you the flu. Minor side effects include soreness, redness, or swelling where the shot was given. It is possible to develop a slight fever, and body aches, but these are simply signs that the body is responding to the vaccine and making itself ready to fight off the influenza virus should you come in contact with it.
