Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
More rural adults experience at least three of the limitations of walking one block, walking uphill or climbing stairs, bending, lifting, stooping, feeding, dressing, bathing, and toileting. In general, rural residents are less concerned about their health status, less likely to have access to health care providers, and less likely to have health insurance.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
As per the National Center for Farmworker Health, pregnant women who are particularly at risk are those who live on or near Indian reservations, migrant workers, and African American women who live in the deep South. Latinos living in urban environments, Caucasians living in remote areas, and those receiving health care from general practitioners are not as much of a concern in comparison to the Indian population.
