Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
Indoor pollution is related to cigarette smoke and radon. Indoor pollution is not related to fire-place smoke, benzene, or chlorine.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
Radiation induces genomic instability because it facilitates new mutations but it does not pro-mote hypersensitivity. Radiation may promote cell death, but this is not its role in inducing ge-nomic instability. Radiation does not enhance mitosis but halts it.
