Answer to Question 1

B
Biological theories view schizophrenia as a brain disorder. Social theories view schizophrenia to be caused by the effects of the environment; psychological theories view the cause of the disease to be a character flaw combined with poor family relationships; and psychobiological theories do not exist.

Answer to Question 2

2
Rationale: The U.S. Census Bureau classifies a 70-year-old individual as elderly. The U.S. Census Bureau has developed a system for classification of older Americans: older: 5564; elderly: 6574; aged: 7584; very old: 85 years and older.
