Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
Over 50 of the victims were killed by someone they knew. Notably 37 of female murder victims are killed by an intimate partner. Thus, the typical perpetrator would be an intimate partner. It would be less likely to be a stranger, someone who wanted money, or someone trying to engage in rape.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
Increasing numbers of children are being seen in the school setting because they lack a source of regular medical care.
