Answer to Question 1

Correct Answer: 2
Thyroid problems are common in areas where iodine is limited. The use of iodized salt has reduced iodine deficiencies and thyroid problems for people who live in the United States. People who live in India and China have a higher risk of developing thyroid disease related to iodine deficiency. Australia, some areas in Eastern Europe, and South America have trouble with iodine deficiency due to their soil, which is typically poor in iodine.

Answer to Question 2

Correct Answer: 4
Some cultural groups believe that the touching of another person's head is inappropriate and this type of examination would be unwelcome. They believe that the soul or spirit resides within their heads. These cultural groups include, but are not limited to, individuals who are of Hmong and Cambodian heritage.
