Answer to Question 1

D
Rigid boundaries are those which do not change or flex with changing circumstances, as indicated here by parents who are reluctant to revise their roles and expectations about their children as the children mature. Enmeshed boundaries are those that have failed to differentiate or develop individually; the family shares roles and thoughts to an excessive degree, without a healthy degree of individuality. Clear boundaries are those that are not enmeshed and that are appropriate and well-maintained.

Answer to Question 2

2
Aerobic and muscle-strengthening exercises can prevent many of the physical problems as-sociated with aging.
