Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
Prognosis for schizophrenic patients who are exhibiting positive behavior patterns is good.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
At least 50 of older men and 70 of older women must get up two or more times during the night to empty their bladders, a condition known as nocturia (excessive urination at night). The most significant age-related change is the decrease in bladder capacity.
