Answer to Question 1

Correct Answer: 2

Cigarette smoking is responsible for more deaths in the United States than death from HIV/AIDS, drug abuse, homicide, suicide, automobile crashes, and fire combined. Smoking is a risk factor for heart disease, breathing disorders, and lung cancer. Secondary smoke increases the incidence of asthma and bronchitis in children, and heart and lung diseases in adults.

Answer to Question 2

Correct Answer: 4

derate intensity exercise should raise the heart rate 50-70. Vigorous intensity exercise should raise the heart rate 70-85. To calculate the minimum and maximum targets zones from each type of activity, you must first determine the maximum heart rate. This is done by subtracting the individual's age from 220. Therefore, 220 - 60 = 160. 160  0.5 (50) = 80; 160  0.7 (70) = 112. For vigorous activity, 160  0.7 = 112; 160  0.85 (85) = 136. Therefore, 80-112, and 112-136 is the correct answer.
