Answer to Question 1

2
Late adulthood spans from the ages of 56 to 75. The lower boundary of late adulthood is retirement. Individuals within this stage may become active in political or community activities. Middle age includes the ages from 40 to 55 and is characterized by a midlife transition. Old age is beyond age 75 and is marked by declining powers, health, and loss of loved ones. The Thirties is characterized by time to assess gains and life experiences.

Answer to Question 2

1
Hypertension, physical activity, and smoking can all be changed to decrease the risk of coronary artery disease. A nonmodifiable risk factor for the development of coronary artery disease is heredity or a family history of heart disease.
