Further assessment is indicated because loss of abdominal muscle tone and
constipation do not occur with aging.
C.
With age, more fatty tissue develops in the abdomen and decreased intestinal
movement can cause constipation.
D.
Because there is no evidence of a diseased colon, there is no need to worry
about abdominal size. –
Correct Answer :C
Rationale:
With aging, the abdominal muscles weaken as fatty tissue is deposited around
the trunk and waist. Slowing peristalsis also affects the emptying of the colon,
resulting in constipation. Option A is not the primary reason for the changes in
body structure. Option B is not indicated because loss of muscle tone and
constipation are age-related changes. Option D dismisses the client's concerns
and does not help her understand the changes that she is experiencing.

lifetime is expressing despair and is still searching for integrity. The nurse uses

adjustment to aging and plans teaching strategies to assist the client to attain
integrity versus despair. Options A, B, and C are normal developmental tasks of
older adults.
