Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
Disabilities limit functioning in at least three of seven areas, including self-help, language, learn-ing, mobility, self-direction, independent living, and economic self-sufficiency.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
By definition, the Social Security Administration defines a disabled person as a person unable to engage in substantial, gainful activity by reason of medically determinable physical or mental impairment. A wheelchair-bound person, a handicapped person, or a person who has had a stroke may be able to engage in gainful activity.
