Answer to Question 1

C
A host is an organism, such as a human being, that can be affected by an agent. Susceptible hosts have no resistance to an agent. A person whose normal defense mechanisms are impaired is known as a compromised host. Factors such as age, occupation, and lifestyle affect the host's susceptibility to infection and to its severity.

Answer to Question 2

D
Self-concept is how a person thinks or feels about him- or herself. Self-concept begins forming in infancy.
