Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
This newly identified stage of development from age 18 to 25 (emerging adulthood) has been described as neither an extended adolescence, as it is much freer from parental control and is much more a period of independent exploration, nor young adulthood, as most young people in their twenties have not made the transitions historically associated with adult status, especially marriage and parenthood.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: D
Young adults are generally active and experience severe illnesses less frequently. However, their lifestyles may put them at risk for illnesses or disabilities during their middle or older-adult years. An estimated 10 to 15 of reproductive couples are infertile, and many are young adults. Substance abuse is not always diagnosable, particularly in its early stages.
