Answer to Question 1

ANS: 3
Deaths and injury from motor vehicle accidents are significant among this age group.
Developing healthy habits to prevent heart disease later in life is important, but heart disease is not the leading cause of mortality and morbidity for the young adult.
Sexually transmitted diseases are a risk factor for this age group, but they do not represent the greatest risk for death and injury.
An injury related to occupation and recreation is a risk factor, but it is not the major cause of mortality and morbidity in this age group.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: 1
Persons who work in dry cleaning establishments are exposed to solvents that may cause derma-titis or liver disease. While asking about the length of time employed is an appropriate assessment question, it is not directed toward identifying a response to any specific risk factor. While burns may be a risk factor for those working in the dry cleaning industry, the risk is not as specific as assessing for contact dermatitis.
While automobile accident-related injuries may be a risk factor in this case, the risk is not as spe-cific as assessing for contact dermatitis.
