Answer to Question 1

C

Answer to Question 2

Ethnocentrism
Rationale: Although the United States is a culturally diverse nation, the prevailing
practice of health care is based on the beliefs held by members of the dominant culture,
primarily Caucasians of European descent. Cultural relativism is the opposite of
ethnocentrism. It refers to learning about and applying the standards of another's culture.

This condition is progressive and worsens with time. More than 100 million people in the United States are nearsighted, but only 20% of those are born with the condition.
