Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
Many international organizations have an ongoing interest in global health. Despite the presence of these well-meaning organizations, it is estimated that the lesser-developed countries still bear most of the cost for their own health care and that contributions from major international organi-zations actually provide for less than 5 of needed costs. Recent reports indicate that the major-ity of funds raised by international organizations are used for food relief, worker training, and disaster relief.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
Most deaths to women worldwide are related to pregnancy and childbirth. Most of these deaths occur in lesser-developed countries. Common nutritional deficiencies in this population are zinc, iodine, vitamin A, folic acid, and calcium. One of the reasons this problem exists is because women are not seen as valued members of society. In developing nations there is a significant incidence of lack of prenatal care during pregnancy and high fertility rates, often due to a lack of access to contraception and other family planning and reproductive health services, as well as cultural belief systems that increase the lifetime risk of maternal death.
