Answer to Question 1

Ans: B
The core of the assessment wheel represents the people who make up the community. The people in this core represent one aspect of demographics. The degree of reaction is the amount of disequilibrium or disruption that results from stressors impinging on the community's lines of defense. Flexible line of defense is the buffer zone representing a dynamic level of health resulting from a temporary response to stress. Normal line of defense is the level of health the community has reached over time.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: D
Stressors are tension-producing stimuli that have the potential of causing disequilibrium in the system. Flexible line of defense is the buffer zone representing a dynamic level of health resulting from a temporary response to stress. Normal line of defense is the level of health the community has reached over time. Lines of resistance are internal mechanisms that act to defend against stressors.
