Nursing Elites

1. Which of the following foods or beverages would offer the most nutrients per calorie?

• A. chicken
• B. wine
• C. white bread
• D. broccoli

Correct answer: D

Rationale: Broccoli is indeed the correct answer. Broccoli is considered nutrient-dense, meaning it provides a significant amount of essential nutrients like vitamins, minerals, and fiber while being relatively low in calories. On the other hand, choices A, B, and C are not as nutrient-dense as broccoli. Chicken can be nutritious but may vary in nutrient content depending on the cut and preparation method. Wine, although containing antioxidants like resveratrol, is not a significant source of essential nutrients. White bread is often low in nutrients and fiber compared to whole grain options, making it less nutrient-dense than broccoli.

2. Ms. Maria Salvacion says that she is the incarnation of the holy Virgin Mary. She said that she is the child of the covenant that would save this world from the evil forces of Satan. One morning, while caring for her, she stood in front of you and said “Bow down before me! I am the holy mother of Christ! I am the blessed Virgin Mary!” The best response by the Nurse is:

• A. Tell me more about being the Virgin Mary
• B. So, You are the Virgin Mary?
• C. Excuse me but, you are not anymore a Virgin so you cannot be the Blessed Virgin Mary.
• D. You are Maria Salvacion

Correct answer: B

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. This vaccine content is derived from RNA recombinants.

• A. Measles C. Hepatitis B vaccines
• B. Tetanus toxoids D. DPT
• C.

Correct answer: B

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

4. What differentiates one amino acid from another?

• A. The amine group
• B. The acid group
• C. The side chain
• D. None of the above

Correct answer: C

Rationale: The side chain, also known as the R group, is what differentiates one amino acid from another. It imparts unique properties to each amino acid, thereby influencing their roles and functions in proteins. The amine group (Choice A) and the acid group (Choice B) are components of all amino acids and do not cause the differences among various amino acids. Choice D is incorrect as it suggests that none of the given options account for the differences, which is not true as the side chain does.

5. A healthcare provider is on a med-surg unit caring for a client who follows the dietary laws of Orthodox Judaism. Which of the following menu selections should the healthcare provider recommend for this client?

• A. Fried catfish
• B. Broiled shrimp
• C. Pork sausage
• D. Grilled vegetables

Correct answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D: Grilled vegetables. Orthodox Judaism restricts the consumption of certain animals, including catfish, shrimp, and pork, making choices A, B, and C inappropriate for a client following these dietary laws. Grilled vegetables are a safe and suitable option that complies with Orthodox Jewish dietary guidelines.
