Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
Multiple myeloma is a B-cell cancer characterized by the proliferation of malignant plasma cells that infiltrate the bone marrow and aggregate into tumor masses throughout the skeletal system; thus, the pain is related to bone destruction, not neuropathic infiltrations, tissue hypoxia, or ac-cumulation of toxic proteins.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
Japan has the lowest rate of Hodgkin lymphoma. The United States, the Netherlands, and Den-mark have among the highest rates.
