Answer to Question 1

ANS: A, B, D
Specific health concerns for this age group include cardiovascular disease and cancer. The nurse should assess for heart disease, stroke, and cancer. Sexually transmitted diseases can occur in any group but is more a priority for the young adult. Functional abilities are more a priority for the older adult.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A, B, D
Free radicals are naturally occurring chemicals that can cause cellular damage. They are implicated in such diseases as cancer, cataracts, and arthritis. They are not implicated as a causative factor in glaucoma and liver disease.
