Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
Assuming the two brothers lived in the same household, the environment and the agent or infectious organisms are the same. The only difference could be between the two brothers themselves and their genetic inheritance.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A
Often the patient is blamed and labeled as being noncompliant. It is more helpful to wonder what barriers interfered with the patient's ability to engage in appropriate action. It is unlikely that the client doesn't understand or doesn't care, rather the barriers are preventing action from being taken. Barriers may prevent the change, but not necessarily the desire to change.
