Biological Basis of Behavior Quizlet Questions
Question 1 of 5
Which information would the nurse include when teaching the mother of a child diagnosed with mild ID?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The correct answer is B because children with mild intellectual disabilities (ID) typically develop academic skills up to a sixth-grade level. This is important information for the mother to understand the potential academic abilities of her child. Choice A is incorrect because children with mild ID may not necessarily need constant supervision, as their level of independence can vary. Choice C is incorrect as children with mild ID may not always appear different from their peers. Choice D is incorrect because mild ID does not necessarily equate to significant sensory-motor impairment.
Question 2 of 5
What percentage of ID cases result in early alterations in embryonic development?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The correct answer is D (30%). The majority of ID cases result from early alterations in embryonic development, affecting brain development and function. These alterations can lead to intellectual disabilities. Choice A (5%) is too low; ID cases are more prevalent. Choice B (10%) is also too low; the percentage is higher. Choice C (20%) is closer, but still underestimated; the actual percentage is even higher than 20%. Therefore, choice D (30%) is the most accurate representation of the percentage of ID cases resulting from early alterations in embryonic development.
