Answer to Question 1

B, C
Individuals who are Caucasian or Asian American are most at risk for developing macular dege-neration than are African Americans or Hispanics.

Answer to Question 2

C
The movement is under way from an institution-centered culture to a person-centered one. A residential care facility houses older adults who cannot live independently but do not need the round-the-clock, complex care capabilities of a nursing home. In most states, ALFs are not re-quired to provide skilled nursing. A granny flat is the term used in Australia for a small, prefa-bricated housing unit where an older adult can live separately from, but close to, family on family property.
