Introduction to Nursing Questions
Question 1 of 5
The nurse is teaching an older adult client about different types of proteins that can be eaten. Which foods will the nurse identify as containing dietary protein? Select all that apply.
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A: fish. Fish is a good source of dietary protein, containing essential amino acids necessary for bodily functions. Fish provides high-quality protein which is important for muscle maintenance and overall health. Nuts, rice, and butter are not primarily sources of protein. Nuts contain healthy fats and some protein, but may not be the main protein source for an individual. Rice and butter are not significant sources of protein and do not provide the essential amino acids needed for optimal health.
Question 2 of 5
What type of logical reasoning is the nurse using when he/she/they starts with the big picture and anticipates specific findings?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The correct answer is B: Deductive. Deductive reasoning starts with a general premise and applies it to specific situations to reach a logical conclusion. In this scenario, the nurse is using deductive reasoning by beginning with the big picture (general premise) and anticipating specific findings (applying the premise to specific situations). Inductive reasoning (choice A) starts with specific observations to form a general conclusion, which is the opposite of what the nurse is doing. "Careful reasoning" (choice C) and "Critical reasoning" (choice D) are vague terms that do not specifically describe the type of logical reasoning being used by the nurse in the given situation.
