• A. Delusion of grandeur
• B. Visual Hallucination
• C. Religious delusion
• D. Auditory Hallcucination

2. What is the function of the gallbladder?

• A. to store bile
• B. to produce bile
• C. to digest bile
• D. to modify bile to a liquid form

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A: "to store bile." The gallbladder acts as a reservoir for bile produced by the liver. It releases bile into the small intestine to aid in the digestion of fats. Choice B is incorrect because the liver produces bile, not the gallbladder. Choice C is incorrect as the gallbladder does not digest bile but stores and releases it for digestion. Choice D is incorrect because bile is already in liquid form; the gallbladder does not modify it to a liquid state.

• A. Tell her family that probably she can’t hear them
• B. Talk loudly so that Wendy can hear you
• C. Tell her family who are in the room not to talk

5. A client with Crohn's disease is being cared for by a nurse. Which of the following food choices aligns with the recommended diet for clients with Crohn's disease?

• A. Vanilla milkshake
• B. Buttered popcorn
• C. Tossed green salad
• D. Toast with jelly

Correct answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is a 'Tossed green salad.' Clients with Crohn's disease often benefit from a low-residue diet, which includes easily digestible foods like leafy green vegetables found in a tossed green salad. This type of diet helps minimize gastrointestinal symptoms. Choices A, B, and D are not ideal for clients with Crohn's disease. Vanilla milkshake, buttered popcorn, and toast with jelly may exacerbate symptoms due to their high fat, fiber, or sugar content, which can be harder to digest.
