Answer to Question 1

B
Self-concept is your view of who you are. It is a combination of unconscious and conscious thoughts, attitudes, and perceptions. Self-concept, or how you think about yourself, directly affects your self-esteem, or how you feel about yourself.

Answer to Question 2

C
Pregnancy causes changes in ventilation. As the fetus grows during pregnancy, the greater size of the uterus pushes abdominal contents up against the diaphragm. During the last trimester of pregnancy the inspiratory capacity declines, resulting in dyspnea on exertion and increased fa-tigue.
