Answer to Question 1

A
NHL is less predictable and can spread faster than HL. Additionally, this statement features a comparison. NHL usually begins with unilateral, painless enlargement of a single lymph node. Expressing an understanding about implication of age as a risk factor or need for blood work does not differentiate specific details about either type of lymphoma.

Answer to Question 2

A, C, D, E
The amount of cardiac output depends on the heart rate, the amount of blood returning to the heart (venous return or preload), the strength of contraction, and the resistance to the ejection of the blood (afterload). Peripheral pulses are dependent on cardiac output.
