Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
Farm workers of all ages consistently have more dental disease than the general population.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
A migrant farm worker is a laborer whose principal employment is in agriculture on a seasonal basis and, for the purposes of such employment, establishes a temporary abode. A seasonal farmworker returns to his permanent residence, works in agriculture for at least 25 days or parts of days, and does not work year round only in agriculture. A transient worker moves from place to place to find work. A share cropper is a tenant farmer who uses part of the crop to pay for rent.
