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.

Your skin wrinkles if you stay in the bathtub a long time because the outermost layer of skin (which consists of dead keratin) swells when it absorbs water. It is tightly attached to the skin below it, so it compensates for the increased area by wrinkling. This happens to the hands and feet because they have the thickest layer of dead keratin cells.
