Answer to Question 1

A
It is important for nurses to recognize major cancer risk factors so that they can assist individuals in planning interventions to reduce these risks. For example, a person who smokes may be generally aware of the link between smoking and lung cancer but continue to smoke anyway.

Answer to Question 2

D
Ecstasy (MDMA) provides an enhanced sense of pleasure and self-confidence, feelings of peacefulness, acceptance, and closeness with others and increased energy.
