Answer to Question 1

D

Answer to Question 2

Metropolitan areas that have developed recently often have no city center. This is due to greater ease of travel and more flexible modes of transportation. Communication technologies such as cell phones, fax machines, and the Internet have also made it less important to maintain physical proximity and density. As a result, many urban areas see concentrated growth around their perimeters, rather than in the central area.

Chronic necrotizing aspergillosis has a slowly progressive process that, unlike invasive aspergillosis, does not spread to other organ systems or the blood vessels.
