Explanation:

Question 9
Brief Explanations

To determine normal age - related changes to hair, skin, and nails:

  • Hair: With aging, hair often grays (due to reduced melanin production), becomes drier (less sebum production).
  • Skin: Skin becomes drier (decreased moisture - retaining ability) with age.
  • Nails: Nails can become yellowed (due to factors like slower growth and changes in keratin).
  • Analyzing the options:
  • Option 1: “Thicker hair, loose skin, and pink tinged nails” is incorrect. Hair typically thins, skin loosens but pink - tinged nails are not a normal age - related change.
  • Option 2: “Graying hair, dry skin, and yellowed nails” matches the normal age - related changes in hair (graying), skin (dryness), and nails (yellowing).
  • Option 3: “Thicker hair, thinner nails, and dark spots” is incorrect. Hair usually thins, and dark spots on nails are not a typical normal age - related change.
  • Option 4: “Bald spots, tighter skin, and increased fat beneath the skin” is incorrect. Skin becomes looser with age, and increased fat beneath the skin is not a universal normal age - related change for all, and bald spots are more related to male pattern baldness or other factors rather than general aging for all.
Brief Explanations

Older adults may have issues with bladder control or urgency. When an older adult says they need to use the bathroom, it usually means they probably need to go right away. Waiting (options 1 - 3) can lead to incontinence or discomfort as their bladder control and ability to hold urine may be reduced with age.

Answer:

B. Graying hair, dry skin, and yellowed nails
