Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
A physician cures disease based on the biomedical health belief system. The other options refer to persons who cure disease based on the personalistic health belief system.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
Stereotyping is an assumption used to describe all members of a specific group without exception. It is an expectation that all individuals in a group will act exactly the same in a situation just because they are members of that group. Stereotyping ignores the individual differences that occur within every cultural group.
