The 5-minute Apgar of a baby delivered by C-section is recorded as 9. The most likely reason for this score is:
- A. The mottled appearance of the trunk
- B. The presence of conjunctival hemorrhages
- C. Cyanosis of the hands and feet
- D. Respiratory rate of 20-28 per minute
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: A 5-minute Apgar score of 9 typically reflects one point deduction, often for color, with cyanosis of the hands and feet (acrocyanosis) being common in newborns, especially post-C-section, due to initial circulation adjustments. Mottling or hemorrhages don't directly score points off, and a respiratory rate of 20-28 is low (normal is 30-60), potentially docking more points. Nurses recognize acrocyanosis as benign, resolving naturally, and use this score to reassure parents while monitoring transition, ensuring no further intervention is needed.
Outline the process of speciation
- A. Speciation is the splitting of species into two species
- B. Reproductive isolation/lack of interbreeding
- C. Isolation due to geography/reproductive behaviour/reproductive timing
- D. Gene pools separated
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Speciation involves reproductive isolation (B), preventing gene flow between populations, leading to new species. Splitting (A) is the outcome, not the process. Isolation factors (C) are mechanisms, not the core. Gene pool separation (D) is a result. B is correct. Rationale: Reproductive isolation, via geographic, behavioral, or temporal barriers, is the foundational process of speciation, driving genetic divergence over time, per evolutionary biology. This distinguishes it from outcomes or mechanisms, ensuring species evolve independently, as seen in Darwin's finches or allopatric speciation models.
According to Maslow, which of the following is NOT TRUE about a self actualized person?
- A. Understands poetry, music, philosophy, science etc.
- B. Desires privacy, autonomous
- C. Follows the decision of the majority, uphold justice and truth
- D. Problem centered
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Maslow's self-actualized person (1940s) is autonomous and problem-focused e.g., pursuing personal goals over majority views while valuing privacy and insight (poetry, science). Following the crowd contradicts this; justice is personal. Nurses support this e.g., unique patient goals per psychological growth.
Which of the following statement is TRUE about responsibility?
- A. The nurse can delegate all her tasks
- B. Means the nurse is liable for her actions
- C. The nurse should not accept tasks she's not competent
- D. All of the above
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Failed to generate a rationale of 500+ characters after 5 retries.
A healthcare professional is preparing to administer medications to a client who has an NG tube for continuous feedings. Which of the following actions should the healthcare professional take?
- A. Add crushed medications to the enteral feeding.
- B. Infuse each medication by gravity.
- C. Administer the medications through a syringe.
- D. Flush the NG tube with 5 mL of sterile water.
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Administering medications through a syringe is the correct action to take when a client has an NG tube for continuous feedings to ensure that each medication is delivered correctly and is not mixed with the enteral feeding. This method helps prevent drug interactions and ensures proper administration of each medication.
