Question 1 of 5
A nurse is caring for a 2-year-old toddler. Which of the following food choices should the nurse recommend to promote independence in eating?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A: Banana slices.
Toddlers at the age of 2 are developing their fine motor skills and independence. Banana slices are easy for toddlers to pick up and eat independently, promoting their self-feeding skills. Grapes pose a choking hazard due to their size and shape. Hot dogs are also a choking hazard as they can easily get stuck in a toddler's throat. Popcorn is a common choking hazard for young children due to its hard texture.
Therefore, recommending banana slices will not only promote independence in eating but also ensure safety for the toddler.

Correct Answer:
Rationale:
Correct Answer: D (Second intercostal space, right sternal border)
Rationale: The nurse should auscultate at the second intercostal space, right sternal border to listen to the aortic valve. This location corresponds to the area where the aortic valve can be best heard. The aortic valve is located in the second intercostal space, right sternal border, so auscultating at this spot allows for accurate assessment of the heart sounds in this area. It is essential to auscultate at this specific location to detect any abnormalities or abnormalities in the aortic valve.
Summary of other choices:
- A, B, C, E, F, G: These locations do not correspond to the specific area where the aortic valve is best heard. Auscultating at these locations may not provide clear or accurate heart sounds related to the aortic valve.
