Answer to Question 1

D
Exercise and physical fitness is beneficial to all people. When developing a physical fitness program for culturally diverse populations, consider what motivates individuals to exercise and what activities will be appropriate and enjoyable.

Answer to Question 2

B
Many times the decision regarding lifesaving treatment is in writing in the patient's living will or advance directive. Living wills are documents instructing the physician or health care provider to withhold or withdraw life-sustaining procedures in a patient who is terminally ill. If the patient has executed a durable power of attorney for health care, the document will designate an individual who is able to give consent for health care treatment when the patient is no longer able.
