Answer to Question 1

B
With passive strategies of health promotion, individuals gain from the activities of others without acting themselves. For example, the city puts fluoride in the municipal drinking water, or milk manufacturers fortify homogenized milk with vitamin D. With active strategies of health promo-tion, individuals adopt specific health programs. Weight reduction and smoking cessation pro-grams require patients to be actively involved in measures to improve their present and future levels of wellness while decreasing the risk for disease. Environmental and sociological do not relate to health promotion strategies.

Answer to Question 2

B
Accidents and injuries are major health problems affecting school-age children and are the caus-ative factor in a large number of deaths in this age group. Motor vehicle accidents, followed by drowning, fires, burns, and firearms are the most frequent fatal accidents.
