Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
Nurses have become dependent on technologies to monitor client progress, make decisions about care, and deliver care in innovative ways as part of the fourth phase. The discovery and devel-opment of pharmacological advances is only one way that technology has increased during the fourth phase. Phase one was concerned with epidemics and infectious disease control. Physicians and nurses attained skills in scientifically based programs in phase two. Phase three included the expansion of hospital clinics and long-term care facilities.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A
Personal behavior/lifestyle (obesity) has the greatest effect on health. Environmental factors (marital status) and human biology (age) are next followed by the health care system (health in-surance).
