Answer to Question 1

ANS: A, E
Smoking and excessive consumption of alcohol may aggravate metabolic syndrome. Metabolic syndrome is not directly affected by inadequate hydration. Metabolic syndrome is directly affected by a sedentary lifestyle, not excessive exercise. Metabolic syndrome is directly affected by increased, not inadequate, caloric intake.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: D
The incidence of metabolic syndrome in the United States is 1 in 3, or about 50 million adults. One in 3000, 1 in 300, and 1 in 30 are each less than the incidence of metabolic syndrome in the United States.

There can actually be a 25-hour time difference between certain locations in the world. The International Date Line passes between the islands of Samoa and American Samoa. It is not a straight line, but "zig-zags" around various island chains. Therefore, Samoa and nearby islands have one date, while American Samoa and nearby islands are one day behind. Daylight saving time is used in some islands, but not in others—further shifting the hours out of sync with natural time.

Though Candida and Aspergillus species are the most common fungal pathogens causing invasive fungal disease in the immunocompromised, infections due to previously uncommon hyaline and dematiaceous filamentous fungi are occurring more often today. Rare fungal infections, once accurately diagnosed, may require surgical debridement, immunotherapy, and newer antifungals used singly or in combination with older antifungals, on a case-by-case basis.

Every flu season is different, and even healthy people can get extremely sick from the flu, as well as spread it to others. The flu season can begin as early as October and last as late as May. Every person over six months of age should get an annual flu vaccine. The vaccine cannot cause you to get influenza, but in some seasons, may not be completely able to prevent you from acquiring influenza due to changes in causative viruses. The viruses in the flu shot are killed—there is no way they can give you the flu. Minor side effects include soreness, redness, or swelling where the shot was given. It is possible to develop a slight fever, and body aches, but these are simply signs that the body is responding to the vaccine and making itself ready to fight off the influenza virus should you come in contact with it.
