Correct Answer is C

Explanation

Choice A reason: An illusion is a misinterpretation of a real external stimulus, which is not the case here as there is no snake.

Choice B reason: Attention-getting behavior is a possibility, but given that Mr. G is specifically referencing a snake that isn't there, it suggests a hallucination.

Choice C reason: A hallucination is a sensory perception in the absence of external stimuli, which fits Mr. G's description of seeing a snake that isn't there.

Choice D reason: A delusion is a firmly held false belief; while Mr. G may have this, the immediate experience he's describing is a hallucination, not a delusion.

A. The client breathes only when their oxygen levels climb above a certain point. B. The client breathes only when their carbon dioxide levels climb above a certain point. C. The client doesn't notice they need to breathe. D. The client breathes only when their oxygen levels dip below a certain point.

Correct Answer is D

Explanation

Choice A reason: This statement is incorrect because it suggests that higher oxygen levels trigger breathing, which is not the case in hypoxic drive.

Choice B reason: While carbon dioxide levels do influence breathing, this statement is not accurate in the context of hypoxic drive, which is specifically about oxygen levels.

Choice C reason: This choice is incorrect because the client does notice the need to breathe, but the trigger is low oxygen rather than high carbon dioxide levels.

Choice D reason: This is correct. In clients with COPD, chronic high levels of carbon dioxide can lead to a reliance on low oxygen levels to stimulate breathing.
