1. Universal
2. Developmental
3. Health deviation
4. Deficit
Correct Answer: 2
Rationale 1: Universal requisites are common to all people and include nutrition, hydration, elimination, and rest.
Rationale 2: Developmental requisites result from maturation or are associated with conditions or events, such as adjusting to a change in body image (adolescent maturation, in this case) or to the loss of a spouse.
Rationale 3: Health deviation requisites result from illness, injury, or disease or its treatment. They include actions such as seeking health care assistance, carrying out prescribed therapies, and learning to live with the effects of illness or treatment.
Rationale 4: Self-care deficit is not a self-care requisite, but it results when self-care agency is not adequate to meet the known self-care demand.
