• A. Educate the client about daily caloric requirements.
• B. Determine the client’s daily caloric intake.
• C. Provide the client with meal planning information.
• D. Show the client how to identify the fat content of packaged foods.

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is to determine the client’s daily caloric intake first. This step is crucial in understanding the client's current dietary habits and establishing a baseline for creating an effective weight loss plan. Educating the client about daily caloric requirements (Choice A) can only be done effectively after knowing the client's current intake. Providing meal planning information (Choice C) and teaching the client how to identify fat content in foods (Choice D) come after determining the baseline caloric intake to tailor the plan accordingly.

4. Each of the following is a form of vitamin K, except one. Which is the exception?

• A. Phylloquinone
• B. Tocopherol
• C. Menaquinone

Correct answer: B

Rationale: Tocopherol, Choice B, is not a form of vitamin K; it is another name for vitamin E. Phylloquinone (Choice A), menaquinone (Choice C), and menadione (Choice D) are all forms of vitamin K. Phylloquinone is vitamin K1 found in green plants, menaquinone is vitamin K2 produced in the large intestine and found in animal tissues, and menadione is a synthetic form of vitamin K. Therefore, Choice B is the correct answer because it does not belong to the vitamin K group, unlike the other options.
