Answer to Question 1

D
Children between the ages of 3 and 5 years may view death as a kind of sleep that is interchangeable with life. Infants and toddlers have no clear concept of death.

Answer to Question 2

A
Cancers are named according to the site of the primary neoplasm or the type of tissue involved. The four main classifications by tissue type include lymphomas, cancers occurring in lymphatic tissue and similar infection-fighting organs; leukemias, cancers occurring in blood-forming organs such as bone marrow; sarcomas, cancers occurring in connective tissue such as bone; and carcinomas, cancers occurring in epithelial tissue such as skin.
