Ans/ 2024-2025.
There may be an environmental exposure that turned a gene "on" that should have been "off"
for one twin to develop schizophrenia and not the other.
central sulcus - Answer: separates the frontal lobe from the parietal lobe
frontal lobe - Answer: associated with movement, intelligence, abstract thinking
What should the PMHNP consider when prescribing chemical restraints? - Answer: -allergy
status
-prior med hx for adverse drug reactions r/t the meds ordered in the chemical restraint
-state regulations regarding chemical restrains must be reviewed

, How does reviewing the genetic makeup of a client help guide the PMHNP in selecting
medication for clients? - Answer: -Genetic testing can assist by providing more information on
how clients may respond to certain psychotropic medications
-provides information on how a client may break down and metabolize medications based on
the cytochrome P450 system.
Tanrıkulu and Erbaş (2020) investigated identical twins to determine the presence of an
inherited link for schizophrenia and why one twin may develop schizophrenia when the other
does not. When two people have 100% identical DNA, why don't both persons develop the
exact illnesses? Studies of identical Danish twins found that if one twin had schizophrenia, the
other twin had a 50% lifetime risk of developing schizophrenia (Lemvigh et al., 2020). Why is
there only half the risk? - Answer: Both environmental and psychosocial stressors can impact
mental health. Although twins may have identical genes, their gene expression may be different.
broca's area - Answer: speech production
temporal lobe - Answer: involves object identification and auditory signals
cerebellum - Answer: coordination
wernicke's area - Answer: speech comprehension
occipital lobe - Answer: primary visual area
parietal lobe - Answer: keeps us alert to what is going on around us
sensory cortex - Answer: pain, heat, and other sensations
