Answer to Question 1

D

Answer to Question 2

A causal inference can only be supported when very specific causal evidence exists. Three critical pieces of causal evidence are:

(1) Temporal sequence - deals with the time order of events. The cause must occur before the effect.
(2) Concomitant variation - occurs when two events covary, meaning they vary systematically. This means that when a change in the cause occurs, a change in the outcome also is observed.
(3) Nonspurious association - means that any covariation between a cause and an effect is true and not simply due to some other variable.

Pink eye is a term that refers to conjunctivitis, which is inflammation of the thin, clear membrane (conjunctiva) over the white part of the eye (sclera). It may be triggered by a virus, bacteria, or foreign body in the eye. Antibiotic eye drops alleviate bacterial conjunctivitis, and antihistamine allergy pills or eye drops help control allergic conjunctivitis symptoms.
