The nurse is assessing an elderly woman and suspects abuse. which questions are appropriate for screening for abuse? select all that apply

The recommended type of questions, based on American medical association, are indirect questions. If you approach the elderly woman, asking "Are you being abused?" , the woman will most likely say no.

Most appropriate would be: "Are you afraid of anybody at home or anyone who enters your home?" "Has anyone ever physically hurt you?", "Are you alone a lot?"

Hardy-Weinberg Equilibrium, also referred to as the Hardy-Weinberg principle, is used to compare

allele frequencies in a given population over a period of time. A population of alleles must meet five

rules in order to be considered “in equilibrium”:

1) No gene mutations may occur and therefore allele changes do not occur.

2) There must be no migration of individuals either into or out of the population.

3) Random mating must occur, meaning individuals mate by chance.

4) No genetic drift, a chance change in allele frequency, may occur.

5) No natural selection, a change in allele frequency due to environment, may occur.

Hardy-Weinberg Equilibrium never occurs in nature because there is always at least one rule being

violated. Hardy-Weinberg Equilibrium is an ideal state that provides a baseline against which

scientists measure gene evolution in a given population. The Hardy-Weinberg equations can be used

for any population; the population does not need to be in equilibrium.

There are two equations necessary to solve a Hardy-Weinberg Equilibrium question:
