Answer to Question 1

B, D, E
Signs of gang involvement include skipping classes, unexplained sources of money, and fear of the police. Associating with new friends while ignoring old friends is another sign, so hanging out with friends they have had since childhood is not a sign of gang involvement. A change in attitude toward participating in activities is another sign of gang involvement. Plans to try out for the debate team at school are not a sign of gang involvement.

Answer to Question 2

A
The first sign of pubertal changes in boys is testicular enlargement in response to testosterone secretion, which usually occurs in Tanner stage 2 . Slight pubic hair is present and the smooth skin texture of the scrotum is somewhat altered. As testosterone secretion increases, the penis, testes, and scrotum enlarge. During Tanner stages 4 and 5, rising levels of testosterone cause the voice to deepen and facial hair appears at the corners of the upper lip and chin.
