Answer to Question 1

1. Incontinence is a result of my increasing age..

Rationale:
Incontinence is not a normal result of aging. A disturbance of the bladder, relaxation of the pelvic muscles, and reduced urethral resistance are all potential factors in the development of incontinence.

Answer to Question 2

1. Loss of cells in the sinoatrial node.

Rationale:
Loss of cells in the sinoatrial node because of age-related changes is the most common cause of dysrhythmias in the older adult. Increased peripheral resistance, hypertension, and atherosclerosis are not common causes of cardiac dysrhythmias in older adults.

Although the Roman numeral for the number 4 has always been taught to have been "IV," according to historians, the ancient Romans probably used "IIII" most of the time. This is partially backed up by the fact that early grandfather clocks displayed IIII for the number 4 instead of IV. Early clockmakers apparently thought that the IIII balanced out the VIII (used for the number 8) on the clock face and that it just looked better.
