Answer to Question 1

1
Explanation: 1. Many Asian immigrants, especially those of Chinese origin, live in crowded living conditions and are employed in poor working environments with minimal income, which predisposes them to poor health.
2. Western medicine does not refuse to treat Asian immigrants, but many Asian immigrants will seek out the traditional method of healthcare they are familiar with.
3. Western medication intolerance is not a factor for the poor health of immigrant Asian populations.
4. While there are fewer healthcare workers of Asian origin than from the dominant culture, this is not a factor contributing to poor health.

Answer to Question 2

1
Explanation: 1. Since a male physician could not directly touch a woman, diagnosis could be made through a ribbon attached to the woman's wrist.
2. Diagnosis could not be made by the primary male family member describing the woman's symptoms.
3. Speaking to the woman behind the screen was not a method for diagnosis.
4. Diagnosis could not be made by the primary male family member touching the woman's pulse.
