Answer to Question 1

C

Answer to Question 2

Ethnocentrism
Rationale: Although the United States is a culturally diverse nation, the prevailing
practice of health care is based on the beliefs held by members of the dominant culture,
primarily Caucasians of European descent. Cultural relativism is the opposite of
ethnocentrism. It refers to learning about and applying the standards of another's culture.
