Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
Family structure and culture influence the health decisions of mothers.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: D
African-American women often arrive at the hospital in far-advanced labor. These women may view pregnancy as a state of wellness, which is often the reason for delay in seeking prenatal care. African-American women practice many self-treatment options for various discomforts of pregnancy, and they may request liver in the postpartum period, but this is based on a belief that the liver has a high blood content.
