Answer to Question 1

A
COPD includes asthma, chronic bronchitis, and emphysema. Pneumonia, an acute pulmonary infection, is not a chronic obstructive lung disorder.

Answer to Question 2

D
Women generally receive less aggressive treatment than men; this stereotype has led to a relative neglect of women's cardiac problems. Men usually receive more aggressive treatment. Testing in the past has focused on male patients. Women receive less aggressive treatment and less effective instruction for cardiac disease, which is potentially due to the atypical presentations women have for cardiac disease and MIs.
