Which finding should the nurse expect when assessing a client who is cyanotic?

A. Bradypnea (slow breathing) may occur in various conditions but is not a defining characteristic of cyanosis. B. A pale reddish color in the skin is not consistent with cyanosis, which indicates a lack of oxygen in the blood. C. Somnolence (drowsiness) may be present in some patients, but it is not a specific finding related to cyanosis. D. Mottled blue color in the skin is a classic sign of cyanosis, indicating inadequate oxygenation of the blood, especially in the extremities or areas with poor circulation.
