Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
During early adult years, the body is at an optimal level of functioning. The gradual decline in physical capabilities, diminishing of visual acuity, and hearing loss will not occur until later in adulthood.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
Body image is a major developmental task of the adolescent. Nutritional status, academic progress, and socialization should be addressed, but they would not be the primary focus.
