Answer to Question 1

A, C
Major risk factors for BPH include increasing age in conjunction with functioning testes. Smok-ing, infrequent ejaculation, and neurogenic bladder are not significant risk factors for BPH.

Women frequently experience fatigue with heart disease. Many women do not even experience chest pain. Fainting, dry mouth, and dizziness are not typical signs of heart disease in women.
