Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
The family systems theory views the family as a whole with boundaries that are affected by the environment. The family developmental theory focuses on common tasks of family life and pro-vides a longitudinal view of the family life cycle. The bioecological systems theory describes how environments and systems outside of the family influence the development of a child over time. Microsystems are part of the bioecological systems theory and describe the systems and individ-uals that the family directly interacts with on a daily basis.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
By definition, a nonfamily may consist of a householder living alone or a householder living with nonrelatives, such as boarders or roommates. Single-family and family households include a householder and at least one other member related by birth, marriage, or adoption. This is not a description of a family demographic trend.
