Amniocentesis has suggested that a couple’s first child will be born with sickle cell disease. The parents are unfamiliar with the health problem and the nurse is explaining the disease. Which statement by the parents would suggest a need for further teaching or clarification?

A female client comes to the clinic reporting increasing fatigue over the past several weeks. The provider orders laboratory testing, and her blood work returns with the following values Hct 40% Hgb 8g/dL WBC 8,000 Platelets  175,000  The nurse should interpret the blood work as indicative of:

A client with a history of hemolytic anemia arrives at the clinic for recent skin color changes. Laboratory results reveal an elevated level of unconjugated bilirubin, consistent with increased red blood cell destruction. The nurse understands that this buildup of bilirubin and released iron will most likely result in which clinical manifestation? 

As part of his diagnostic workup, a 77-year-old male is having his ferritin level analyzed. Which explanation by the nurse regarding the significance and rationale for this test is most accurate?

The figure below shows the temperature-pressure dependent melting relationships of Earth’s interior (solidus), from the surface (0 km) to its center (~6300 km), as well as a generic geothermal gradient for Earth.  a) 5 pts: Determine the approximate depth (km) of the base of each of Earths Rheologic layers (e.g., 100, 900, 1100 2500): By 100’s, in other words NO numbers like 157. Do NOT include units. Lithosphere [depth1]            Asthenosphere [depth2]   Mesosphere [depth3]     Outer Core [depth4]        Inner core [depth5]. b) 5pts: Describe the rheologic property of each layer which differentiates it from the layer layers above and below. Lithosphere [rheo1]      Asthenosphere [rheo2] Mesosphere [rheo3] Outer Core [rheo4] Inner core [rheo5] c) [5pts]: Describe the composition of each layer.

Use the plate maps below to construct a plate vector diagram on Supplementary document Page.   Draw rate (mm/yr) calibrated and properly oriented vector triangle on the provided scaled axes adjacent the plate map (Supp. Doc). Add properly orientated relative motion arrows for the plate boundary between Plate A and B (dashed line) based on your Vector triangle (1, above) AND determine the  plate boundary type. Draw the the appropriate symbology for the plate boundary type determined AND add the relative rate (mm/yr) between Plate A and B.  Determine if the Triple Junction is stable or unstable. Dashed lines with labels for ab, bc, and ac must be shown to earn any credit for your answer.
