7. The nurse who makes the following statement demonstrates the need for additional education in genetic science:

1.	“Examining a family pedigree is helpful in identifying inheritance patterns.”
2.	“A genetic profile provides information about an individual’s potential risks and susceptibility to disease.”
3.	“People with a genetic mutation show signs of disease.”

10. A nurse would demonstrate the need for more education in pharmacogenetics when stating that:

1.	Single-nucleotide polymorphisms are thought to affect how an individual may respond to certain drugs
2.	Nurses will need to explain to patients the use of genotype differences in medication selection
3.	A major goal of pharmacogenetics is to reduce adverse drug reactions
4.	The medications used to treat disease are prescribed based on diagnosis, signs, and symptoms
