Answer to Question 1

A
The rate of injury and crime is lower in communities that promote good health. Where inequities of resources and education exist, health disparity, violence, and other crimes rise and accidental injuries occur more often.

Answer to Question 2

C
If disability, incarceration, or death occurs, tertiary prevention is applied in settings appropriate to address rehabilitation or identify factors that have put individuals at risk.
