Answer to Question 1

B
Feedback:
Ergonomics is defined as the field of engineering science devoted to promoting comfort, performance, and health in the workplace. The principles are certainly consistent with the other health goals that are listed, but the primary focus is on the workplace.

Answer to Question 2

A
Feedback:
Morbidity is the incidence of a specific disease, disorder, or injury and refers to the rate or numbers of people affected. Mortality denotes the number of people who died from a particular disease or condition. Onset and distribution are not concepts that are central to epidemiology.
