Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
There is an obvious need for a primary care curriculum that prepares students to meet the needs of aggregates through community strategies that include understanding of statistical data and epidemiology. Primary health care and health promotion rather than acute care treatment would be emphasized. Such a curriculum would move the focus from the individual to a broader population approach.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
Each theory explains some disease under some conditions, but no single theory accounts for all disease. Infectious agents cause disease when a person is susceptible as a result of stress and/or environmental conditions.
