Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
Forty-four percent of those who start drinking at the age of 14 or younger will develop alcoholism.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
When Medicare became effective in 1966, it revolutionized home care by changing it to a medical rather than nursing model of practice, defining and limiting services it would reimburse, and changing the payment source and even changing the reason home care was provided.

This condition is progressive and worsens with time. More than 100 million people in the United States are nearsighted, but only 20% of those are born with the condition.
