The risk for developing the condition is about 50% only if both parents were carriers of the gene that predisposes the condition to their offspring.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B. If both parents are carriers of a gene that predisposes a condition, each parent contributes one copy of the gene, resulting in a 50% chance that the offspring will inherit the gene from both parents, leading to a 50% risk of developing the condition. Choice A is incorrect because if only one parent is a carrier, the offspring has a 25% chance of inheriting the gene. Choice C is incorrect as the risk is not 75% when both parents are carriers, but rather 50%. Choice D is also incorrect as the risk is indeed 50% when both parents are carriers.

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D because allowing the teen to skip meals if she feels full can reinforce unhealthy eating behaviors associated with anorexia nervosa. This statement contradicts the essential goal of promoting regular and adequate meal intake to support recovery. Encouraging the teen to eat when not hungry may be necessary to restore normal eating patterns. Choices A, B, and C align with supporting the teen's nutritional needs and recovery process.

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A. In Anorexia Nervosa treatment, the primary goal is weight restoration to a healthy level. This is crucial for physical health and recovery. Stabilizing weight at a normal level is a key indicator of treatment success. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect as they do not address the core issue of weight restoration, which is essential in treating Anorexia Nervosa. Group therapy, body image satisfaction, and cognitive function are important aspects of treatment but not the primary outcome measure for patients with anorexia nervosa.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: Risk for injury related to electrolyte imbalances. Patients with bulimia nervosa who engage in frequent purging behaviors are at risk for electrolyte imbalances due to loss of potassium, sodium, and other essential minerals. This can lead to serious complications such as cardiac arrhythmias and organ damage. Monitoring and addressing electrolyte imbalances is crucial in the care of these patients to prevent potential harm. A: Ineffective coping related to inability to control impulses is not the most appropriate diagnosis as it does not directly address the immediate risk of electrolyte imbalances in this scenario. C: Imbalanced nutrition: less than body requirements related to food refusal is not the most appropriate diagnosis as the primary concern in bulimia nervosa with purging behaviors is the risk of electrolyte imbalances, not necessarily inadequate food intake. D: Disturbed body image related to fear of weight gain is not the most appropriate diagnosis as it does not address the immediate physical health risks

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: Impaired social interaction related to unfamiliar environment as evidenced by isolation and not talking with peers. This is the most appropriate nursing diagnosis because schizoid personality disorder is characterized by a pattern of social detachment and limited emotional expression. The client's behavior of isolating herself and not engaging with peers aligns with impaired social interaction. Choice A (Anxiety) is incorrect because the client's behavior is more indicative of social detachment rather than anxiety. Choice C (Ineffective coping) is incorrect as there is no evidence to suggest the client is using maladaptive coping strategies. Choice D (Disturbed thought processes) is incorrect as the client's presentation does not indicate any disturbances in thought processes, but rather a lack of social engagement.
