A nurse is caring for a client who has Alzheimer's disease. Which of the following findings should the nurse expect?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: Failure to recognize familiar objects.

This is due to the progressive deterioration of brain cells affecting memory and perception. Altered level of consciousness (
A) is not a typical finding in Alzheimer's disease unless there is a medical complication. Excessive motor activity (
C) is not commonly associated with Alzheimer's, as individuals often exhibit decreased motor skills. Rapid mood swings (
