1. Folate is crucial for DNA synthesis and cell division, making it particularly important during periods of rapid growth, such as pregnancy.

• A. TRUE
• B. FALSE
• C.
• D.

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A. Folate plays a crucial role in DNA synthesis and cell division, which are essential processes for cell multiplication. This makes folate particularly important during periods of rapid growth, such as pregnancy. Therefore, the statement is true. Choice B is incorrect because it fails to acknowledge the significance of folate in cell multiplication and rapid growth, especially during pregnancy.

2. Which of the following questions illustrates the group role of encourager?

• A. What were you saying?
• B. Who wants to respond next?
• C. Where do you go from here?
• D. Why haven’t we heard from you?

Rationale: Nursing interventions should be grounded in a deep understanding of the physiological processes involved, ensuring that care provided is both effective and efficient.

3. How long can Vitamin A be stored in the liver for at least?

• A. 1 month.
• B. 6 months.
• C. 1 year.
• D. 18 months.

Correct answer: C

Rationale: Vitamin A can be stored in the liver to meet basic needs for at least 1 year. This storage capacity allows the body to have a reserve of Vitamin A to sustain its needs over an extended period. Choices A, B, and D are incorrect because they underestimate the storage capacity of Vitamin A in the liver, which can last longer than these durations.

• A. Vitamin C
• B. Vitamin D
• C. Vitamin E
• D. Vitamin B6

Correct answer: A

Rationale: Corrected Rationale: Vitamin C deficiency can impair collagen synthesis and delay wound healing, making it crucial for recovery from pressure ulcers. Incorrect Rationales: - Vitamin D deficiency is associated with bone health, not specifically wound healing. - Vitamin E deficiency can lead to neurological and immune system issues but is not directly linked to delayed wound healing. - Vitamin B6 deficiency can cause skin rashes and neurological symptoms but is not a primary factor in delayed wound healing.
