Answer to Question 1

D

Answer to Question 2

A
Feedback:
Clients who frequently have diarrhea or constipation are more likely to develop colon cancer. Clients who are older than 40 years of age and those who consume a high-calorie, high-fat diet are likely to have colon cancer. Monilial patches on the tongue are caused by a fungal infection. Such infections do not increase the risk of colon cancer.
