ANS: A
Feedback: Health and illness are part of a dynamic continuum. It is based on one's
perceptions and is subjective. There are a variety of descriptions one can use along the
continuum to describe their current state. These range from "extremely healthy" to
"extremely ill." Because it is a dynamic continuum, it represents more than two exclusive
categories. The health-illness continuum includes the body, mind, and spirit, not just
physical well-being.

Feedback: Homeostasis is an important body goal and is often reflected in the client's
perception of the health-illness continuum. Disease is the functional impairment of cells,
tissues, organs, or organ systems. Because health is reflected in the client's perception of the
health-illness continuum, it is subjective, not objective. An uneventful physical examination
would only be on aspect of health. The health-illness continuum includes the body, mind,
and spirit.

systems?
a. Injury
b. Pathophysiology
c. Disease
d. Syndrome

ANS: C
Feedback: Disease is defined as the functional impairment of cells, tissues, organs, or organ
systems. Injury causes changes to cells, pathophysiology refers to the study of mechanisms
of disease, and syndrome is used to describe specific conditions with predictive patterns.

from developing a disease or injury. Secondary prevention is the early detection of disease
through screening and early treatment. Tertiary prevention focuses on rehabilitation after
diagnosis of a disease or injury. Quaternary prevention relates to overmedicalization.
