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.

Answer to Question 2

D
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.
