Answer to Question 1

C
Feedback:
The baby boomer cohort attained higher levels of education and economic status than past generations. They have, however, fewer children and the same (or greater) burdens of chronic disease and needs for health care as their parents did.

Answer to Question 2

B
Impetigo is seen at all ages, but is particularly common in children. The crust is honey-colored and easily removed.
