Answer to Question 1

D
Perceived social support is social support that is perceived by the recipient of the support. The elderly patient perceives a lack of social support even though the youngest daughter provides help weekly. Actual social support is identified as social support that is given by others regardless of the recipient's perception of the support.

Answer to Question 2

F

Although the Roman numeral for the number 4 has always been taught to have been "IV," according to historians, the ancient Romans probably used "IIII" most of the time. This is partially backed up by the fact that early grandfather clocks displayed IIII for the number 4 instead of IV. Early clockmakers apparently thought that the IIII balanced out the VIII (used for the number 8) on the clock face and that it just looked better.
