Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
An estimated 18 of children in the United States have a chronic illness or disability that warrants health care services beyond those usually required by children. Chronic illness has surpassed acute illness as the major health concern for children. Congenital disabilities exist from birth but may not be hereditary. These represent a portion of the number of children with chronic illnesses. Mental and nervous system disorders account for approximately 17 of chronic illnesses in children.

Answer to Question 2
