Answer to Question 1

Correct Answer: 1
Hepatitis A occurs most frequently in children and young adults. Hepatitis B, C, and D virus transmission seems unrelated to specific age groups and is most closely associated with specific risk factors or behaviors.

Answer to Question 2

Correct Answer: 1, 3, 4, 5
Pregnant women who eat smaller, dry meals throughout the day are less likely to experience nausea and vomiting than women who eat fewer, larger meals during the day. People who travel to India, Asia, Africa, or Central America are more likely to become infected with hepatitis E virus. Immunocompromised clients are more prone to developing foodborne illnesses. Safe food handling when preparing food for these clients is very important. Poor oral hygiene is associated with malnutrition. Caucasian and Hispanic populations are more prone to alcohol abuse than Asians.
