Answer to Question 1

A, B, C, D
All adolescents are at risk for experimental or recreational substance use because some believe that substance use makes them more mature. Suicide is the third leading cause of death in adolescents. Sexually transmitted diseases annually affect 3 million sexually active adolescents. Adolescent pregnancy continues to be a major social challenge for our nation. Gonadotropic hormones stimulate ovarian cells to produce estrogen and testicular cells to produce testosterone. These hormones are normally occurring and contribute to the development of secondary sex characteristics, such as hair growth and voice changes, and play an essential role in reproduction.
