Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
The U.S. Census Bureau definition of family (two or more people who reside together and who are related by blood, marriage, or adoption) is useful for statistical purposes, but is limited when assessing a family for health purposes. A broader definition considers a family as two or more people who live in the same household, share a common emotional bond, and perform certain interrelated social tasks.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: D
This definition describes the communal family.
