Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
For a sizable proportion of the homeless, severe mental illness exists along with the problems of alcohol or other types of substance use. Like physical health problems, serious mental illnesses and minor emotional problems occur more frequently among the homeless population than in the general population. High rates of alcohol and drug use exacerbate the existing acute and chronic physical and mental health problems. These coexisting problems can make it harder to assist the homeless person.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
Bulimia nervosa typically begins in adolescence or during the early 20s, usually in conjunction with a diet. High school and college students, as well as members of certain professions that emphasize weight and/or appearance (e.g., dancers, flight attendants, cheerleaders, athletes, actors, models), are at a high risk. Based on these descriptors and the typical characteristics of a person who has bulimia, the 15-year-old cheerleader demonstrates the greatest risk.
