Answer to Question 1

Answer: B, C, E

This observation indicates a paternal family structure where the father makes the decisions for the family. The children appear fearful to ask the father a question, which is supported by the father's gruff response and the father's brisk walking. The mother is behind the father with the children, which could indicate that her role is child care. There is no evidence that these children need discipline or that the father is in a hurry.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: A, E

Yoga has been found to improve wellness and prevent disorders such as depression. The gentle nature of the exercises allows its use by people in almost any condition. Those who practice yoga on a regular basis report improved life satisfaction, alertness, enthusiasm, and mental and physical energy, all of which are the opposite of the symptoms of depression. Yoga does not specifically increase blood flow to the brain. Yoga does not stimulate the production of serotonin. Short periods of aerobic exercise or longer periods of anaerobic exercise over a period of weeks will raise the level of endorphins, which enhance the feeling of well-being.
