A nurse is providing discharge teaching to a client following a tubal ligation procedure. Which statement by the client indicates an understanding of the teaching?

Choice A rationale
Preterm newborns do not have a thick layer of brown fat. Brown fat is a type of fat that generates heat and is typically found in full-term newborns. It helps them maintain their body temperature. Preterm newborns have less brown fat, which makes them more susceptible to hypothermia.
Choice B rationale
Shivering is a mechanism used by the body to generate heat when it’s cold. However, preterm newborns cannot shiver. Their nervous systems are not fully developed, and they lack the muscle coordination necessary to shiver.
Choice C rationale
Sweating is another mechanism the body uses to regulate temperature. When the body is too warm, it produces sweat to cool down. However, preterm newborns do not sweat to cool off when they get too warm. Their sweat glands are not fully developed, and they may not be able to sweat effectively.
Choice D rationale
Preterm newborns have less muscle tone, which exposes more body surfaces to heat loss. Muscle tone provides insulation and generates heat. Because preterm newborns have less muscle mass, they have less insulation and generate less heat, making them more susceptible to hypothermia.

Consuming foods served at cool temperatures can help alleviate nausea and vomiting during early pregnancy. Cold foods often have less aroma compared to hot foods, which can make them more tolerable for someone experiencing nausea.
Choice B rationale
Brushing teeth after each meal is a good oral hygiene practice, but it does not directly help with managing nausea and vomiting during early pregnancy.
Choice C rationale
Eating three large meals per day is not recommended for managing nausea and vomiting during early pregnancy. Instead, eating small, frequent meals throughout the day can help keep the stomach from becoming empty, which can exacerbate nausea.
Choice D rationale
Drinking plenty of water when feeling nauseated can help prevent dehydration, which can occur as a result of vomiting. However, it may not directly alleviate the feeling of nausea.
