Answer to Question 1

B
A client's health history should contain demographic information and client and family medical history, the reason for seeking health care and perception of health status.

Answer to Question 2

B
Culture represents adaptive dynamic processes learned through life experiences; it is not static or uniform among all members of the group. The diversity within and among cultural groups results from individual perspectives and practices. Ethnicity, a cultural group's perception or identity, reflects a common social heritage passed from generation to generation. This shared identity is evident in common customs and traits.
