Answer to Question 1

ANS: 1

Answer to Question 2

3. This is a common myth among athletes, and there is no basis in fact.

Rationale:
The idea that sexual activity weakens the person physically is a common misconception among athletes, but there is no evidence to support that idea. There is no evidence that avoiding intercourse is necessary. There is no evidence that sexual activity before intense exercise affects stamina or endurance.

This condition is progressive and worsens with time. More than 100 million people in the United States are nearsighted, but only 20% of those are born with the condition.
