Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
Rural residents in the southern states are more likely to be obese, smoke more heavily if they do smoke, use smokeless tobacco, and engage in sedentary lifestyles. Rates of motor vehicle accidents and suicide are higher in rural areas, although not necessarily the South. Additionally, there is a decreased use of seatbelts and increased use of alcohol in rural areas; however, the textbook mentions that these rates are higher in the rural West than in the rural South. The rates of falls and homicide are not addressed in the textbook.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
About 15.1 of households with children have at least one child with a special health care need (disabling condition).
