Question 3 of 5
Which of the following statements is true regarding Joel's disorder? a.Hemophilia is an autosomal dominant disorder in which the woman carries the trait
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Hemophilia is an X-linked disorder, meaning the gene responsible for hemophilia is carried on the X chromosome. Typically, hemophilia is passed down from a carrier mother to her male offspring who then express the disorder. This is because males have only one X chromosome (inherited from their mother), making them more vulnerable to X-linked disorders. Females have two X chromosomes, which means that even if one carries the hemophilia gene, the other X chromosome may carry a normal gene that can compensate, making females less likely to exhibit symptoms of hemophilia. In this case, Joel's disorder aligns with the typical pattern of inheritance for hemophilia as described in statement C.
Question 4 of 5
The nurse has been teaching an adult who has iron deficiency anemia about those foods that she needs to include in her meal plans. Which of the following, if selected, would indicate to the nurse that the client understands the dietary instructions?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: Citrus fruits and green leafy vegetables are good sources of vitamin C and non-heme iron, which can help improve iron absorption in individuals with iron deficiency anemia. Bananas and nuts do not have a direct impact on iron absorption. Coffee and tea contain compounds that can inhibit iron absorption. Dairy products, while an important part of a balanced diet, do not specifically aid in improving iron levels. Thus, selecting citrus fruits and green leafy vegetables indicates that the client understands the dietary instructions provided by the nurse to manage iron deficiency anemia.
