Answer to Question 1

C
Aortic aneurysms are among the cardiovascular anomalies associated with Marfan syndrome. Marfan syndrome is characterized by ocular, skeletal, and cardiovascular alterations. Respiratory difficulties are more characteristic of cystic fibrosis. Cephalopelvic disproportion is characteristic of osteogenesis imperfecta type 1 . Progressive renal insufficiency is not associated with Marfan syndrome.

B, D, E, F
Energy-based therapies include touch therapies such as therapeutic touch, Reiki, healing touch, and magnetic therapy or transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS).
