Question 1 of 5
Which of the following are primary nutrients? (Select all that apply)
Correct Answer: B,C
Rationale: Primary nutrients provide energy and building blocks for the body. Fats and carbohydrates (CHO) are macronutrients that supply energy. Hemoglobin is a protein in red blood cells, and lipase is an enzyme, not nutrients.
Question 2 of 5
What term describes the amount of pain stimulation that is needed for an individual to feel pain?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Pain threshold is the point at which a person first perceives pain, varying by individual factors like genetics or health. Pain tolerance is the amount of pain one can endure, and the other options are unrelated.
Question 3 of 5
When assessing the heart, the nurse inspects and palpitates which of the following?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: When assessing the heart, the nurse inspects and palpates the precordium, the area of the chest overlying the heart, and the point of maximal impulse (PMI), where the heartbeat is strongest. This helps evaluate the heart's size, shape, and any abnormalities. The peritoneum is unrelated to heart assessment.
Question 4 of 5
The nurse is admitting a client of the Muslim faith during the holy month of Ramadan. The client tells the nurse that he must fast during this time. Which response by the nurse is the most appropriate?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: Asking 'What can we do to accommodate your needs during your stay here?' respects the client's religious beliefs and opens a dialogue to develop a care plan that aligns with their values. Other options are dismissive or insensitive to the client's faith.

Correct Answer: D
Rationale: Nurses are mandated reporters, legally required to report suspected or confirmed cases of child, elder, or vulnerable adult abuse or neglect to the appropriate authorities. This obligation supersedes other actions like involving family or referring to social services, which do not replace reporting.
