Answer to Question 1

A
Feedback:
The readiness for enhanced nutrition diagnosis relates directly to nutrition when altered nutrition is the problem, or indirectly when a change in intake will help to manage a nonnutritional problem. A deficient fluid volume, constipation, or impaired oral mucous membranes can be related to nutrition, but they are not considered an obvious nutritional deficiency.

Answer to Question 2

D
Feedback:
Among clients, diet is a four-letter word with negative connotations, such as counting calories, deprivation, sacrifice, and misery. A diet is viewed as a short-term punishment to endure until a normal pattern of eating can resume. The other answers do not cause the negative connotations the word diet does.
