Answer to Question 1

B
Many Native American tribes have a medicine man or woman, often called a Shaman, who may chant and sing or use incense to help the ill person get well. The other responses are more apt to occur in other ethnic groupsA with Muslims, C with Hispanics, and D with Japanese people.

Answer to Question 2

C
Benign enlargement of the prostate is a normal aging change. Responses A, B, and D are incorrect. Prostate enlargement is not always related to the presence of cancer. Enlargement of the prostate can cause urethral obstruction and is the primary cause of overflow incontinence and urinary dribbling. Prostate enlargement is not related to impotence.
