Answer to Question 1

ANS: 2000

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C, D, E
Hepatitis C or HIV can predispose the patient to leukemia, not CMV. Drugs that cause bone marrow depression, such as chemotherapeutic agents, predispose an individual to leukemia; eat-ing genetically modified food is not a predisposing factor. Excessive ultraviolet radiation expo-sure can predispose an individual to myelogenous leukemia. Acute leukemia may also develop secondary to certain acquired disorders, including ovarian cancer.
