Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Labile means something that changes rapidly and often.

A patient who is lethargic may seem _____?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The correct answer is B: 'Exhausted.' Lethargic describes a state of feeling sluggish, tired, and lacking energy, which aligns with being exhausted. Choice A, 'Energetic,' is the opposite of lethargic and does not fit the description. Choice C, 'Confused,' refers to a state of disorientation rather than physical tiredness. Choice D, 'Restless,' implies a state of agitation or inability to relax, which contrasts with the typical presentation of someone who is lethargic.
