Answer to Question 1

B
Development within the spiritual dimension focuses on defining one's value system and belief system. Young adults often challenge their current religious practices by changing churches or refusing to attend services. This is not seen as a personality disorder or a result of dysfunctional parenting. This task is expected during this phase of development.

Answer to Question 2

B
Although adverse effects of CAM therapy cannot be predicted in any individual, the most likely adverse effect of chelation therapy is a low potassium level because EDTA binds with heavy metals, causing potassium depletion. This therapy is controversial, and its effectiveness has not been proved scientifically.
