Answer to Question 1

C
The most common signs and symptoms of skin infections include redness, pain, discoloration, swelling, and lesions. Although bleeding and discharge (response B) may be present, this would happen at a more advanced stage of infection.

Answer to Question 2

A
Senior centers across the United States provide activities for older adults, and most serve a meal once a day during the week while groups of seniors are at the centers. Eating alone and preparing meals for one person are often difficult adjustments for older adults. Meals on Wheels delivers meals to older adults but does not provide social contact (response B). The food stamps program is state and federally funded (response C). It provides food vouchers for low-income people of all ages. The USDA distributes food commodities, such as butter and cheese, to older adults and low-income families (response D). Neither of these programs provides the meal or opportunities for socialization.
