Answer to Question 1

C
Getting regular exercise is changing an exercise risk-factor behavior that could contribute to a health alteration. Immunization is disease prevention, not an altered risk factor. Medications to lower cholesterol would be a medical treatment for an existing health alteration. Changing dietary and exercise behaviors are examples of initiating change in risk factors to lower cholesterol.

Answer to Question 2

D
One of the overarching goals of Healthy People 2020 is the attainment of high-quality, longer lives free of communicable disease, disability, injury, and premature death. Other goals include achieving health equity, eliminating disparities and improving health of all groups; creating social physical environments that promote good health for all; and promoting quality of life, healthy development, and health behaviors across all life stages.
