CHAPTER 1: DEVELOPMENT
1. The nurse is teaching a group of nursing students about the concept of development.
Which statement by a student indicates a correct understanding of the term "differentiation"?
• A) "It is a quantitative change resulting in an increased body size or weight."
• B) "It is the process where cells and structures become specialized and refined."
• C) "It refers to the emergence of adultlike physical characteristics and ripening."
• D) "It is the predictable sequence of physical changes from conception to death."
Answer: B
Explanation: Differentiation is the process by which initially formed cells and structures become
specialized. This is both a quantitative and a qualitative change from simple to complex in which
broad global functions become more specific and refined .
2. A nurse is providing anticipatory guidance to the parents of a 4-year-old child. The child is
cooperative during the exam, speaks in 4-5 word sentences, and is able to hop on one foot.
