Answer to Question 1

D
Feedback:
Kegel exercises are an approach to strengthening the pelvic floor muscles, which can lead to an improvement in control over urine incontinence, not retention.

Answer to Question 2

A
Feedback:
Some seniors deny age-related changes and push themselves physically. Others invest in expensive beauty treatments that promise to subvert the aging process. Others go to the opposite extreme and overestimate their deficiencies, adopting an unnecessarily restrictive lifestyle. An expressed desire for greater dependency is rare.
