Answer to Question 1

Ans:
C

Feedback:

The release of data from two clinical trials within the WHI (low-fat dietary patterns, calcium and vitamin D supplementation) has challenged conventional wisdom in other areas. The use of calcium (1000 mg/day) plus vitamin D (200 IU/day) was shown to result in a small but significant improvement in hip bone density but failed to reduce the risk of hip fractures. The IOM recommends that all adults should take 600 IU/day of vitamin D to maintain healthy bones.

Answer to Question 2

Ans:
C

Feedback:

Genital stimulation can produce erection and ejaculation in some men with complete transection of the spinal cord; therefore, that negates answer choices A and D.
