Answer to Question 1

Poverty rates in rural areas dominated by agricultural production have increased in recent decades. In order to be profitable, farms require a vast number of acres and technology not typically affordable for individuals. Thus, while most farms are still small, they also make relatively little money and the majority of farm owners are not able to make ends meet simply by farming. The lack of sustainable, family owned, farms has augmented the growing concerns of poverty in rural areas.

Answer to Question 2

The U.S. is facing more daunting prospects for upward social mobility now than it has in some time. While many people still believe that it is possible to make it in America, the reality is that we have far fewer opportunities when compared to our own recent history or to other countries around the world. Many European nations have levels of relative mobility that far outpace our own.

As many as 28% of hospitalized patients requiring mechanical ventilators to help them breathe (for more than 48 hours) will develop ventilator-associated pneumonia. Current therapy involves intravenous antibiotics, but new antibiotics that can be inhaled (and more directly treat the infection) are being developed.

People who have myopia, or nearsightedness, are not able to see objects at a distance but only up close. It occurs when the cornea is either curved too steeply, the eye is too long, or both. This condition is progressive and worsens with time. More than 100 million people in the United States are nearsighted, but only 20% of those are born with the condition. Diet, eye exercise, drug therapy, and corrective lenses can all help manage nearsightedness.

In women, pharmacodynamic differences include increased sensitivity to (and increased effectiveness of) beta-blockers, opioids, selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors, and typical antipsychotics.

Did you know?

Although the Roman numeral for the number 4 has always been taught to have been "IV," according to historians, the ancient Romans probably used "IIII" most of the time. This is partially backed up by the fact that early grandfather clocks displayed IIII for the number 4 instead of IV. Early clockmakers apparently thought that the IIII balanced out the VIII (used for the number 8) on the clock face and that it just looked better.
