Answer to Question 1

FALSE

Answer to Question 2

There are several reasons, among these being the tremendous religious diversity that characterizes the region. With economic inequalities or political instability, religion may serve as a focal point. Likewise, following independence, many regions were divided by religion (and language); subsequent disputes over borders are thus cast in religious terms.

These people included 55 lung cancer patients, 31 breast cancer patients, and 83 cancer-free patients. The dogs detected 54 of the 55 lung cancer patients as having cancer, detected 28 of the 31 breast cancer patients, and gave only three false-positive results (detecting cancer in people who didn't have it).
