Answer to Question 1

D
Feedback:
Only a minority of the older population has an income from a private pension plan. Few have significant savings, and inflation has decreased the value of their retirement funds. Of the workers who are currently active in the labor force, more than half will not have pension plans when they retire.

Answer to Question 2

C
Feedback:
Hypertrophy of the bladder muscle and thickening of the bladder itself are considered normal, age-related changes and can be causative of frequency. The other cited phenomena are not considered normal, age-related changes.
