Answer to Question 1

B

Answer to Question 2

Early hospitals were religious centers for the care of the sick and the poor. During the Renaissance they were separated from the church and became public facilities, still serving not only the sick but also the poor. In the seventeenth century physicians gained control over the care of patients in hospitals, and the role of the hospital was narrowed to serving only medical needs. The modern hospital emerged at the end of the nineteenth century as a result of the development of the science of medicine. Their number grew rapidly in the twentieth century and they play an increasingly important role in the control of medical practice and care.
