Answer to Question 1

Boom Correct answer

Answer to Question 2

Ans: A
Feedback:
Depression, a serious mental health problem for all age groups, is particularly challenging for older adults. Although 8 to 15 of them have depression, the condition often is undiagnosed and untreated for older clients because they, their families, or health care providers mistakenly confuse signs and symptoms with normal aging. This phenomenon is more significant than suspicion, internalization of symptoms or organic brain changes.
