Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
Determinants are conditions and factors that are important considerations in population health. Culture refers to the beliefs and customs of a certain group. Development refers to something that is being created. Community is a group of people living in the same geographic location.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
Many immigrants have settled on unincorporated land, known as colonias, outside the major metropolitan areas in California, Arizona, New Mexico, and Texas. These colonies may not have developed roads, transportation, water, or electrical services. Conditions in these settlements have led to an increase in disease conditions such as amebiasis, respiratory, and diarrheal diseas-es. Environmental health hazards in the colonias are associated with poverty, poor sanitation, and overcrowded conditions.
