Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
Asymptomatic, enlarged, cervical or supraclavicular lymphadenopathy is the most common presentation of Hodgkin's disease. Petechiae are usually associated with leukemia. Bone and joint pain are not likely in Hodgkin's disease. The enlarged nodes are rarely painful.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
AIDS is caused by the human immunodeficiency virus, which primarily attacks the CD4+ T-cells. Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome, ITP, and severe combined immunodeficiency disease are not viral illnesses.
