Answer to Question 1

A
Research suggests that members of minority groups delay seeking help until their problems are intense, chronic, and at a stage that is difficult to treat, and until community and family support systems have been exhausted. Delays in accessing care and early termination from care create a cyclical reliance on more costly health care services.

Answer to Question 2

B
Monochromatic color schemes do not promote thriving, according to the Theory of Thriving. Creating an environment that fosters an interaction with nature can promote thriving, under the thriving framework. Sunlight, plants, and pets are examples of items that can promote thriving. Also, having children in the area and activities with them is known to promote thriving.
