Answer to Question 1

D
Emotional factors, intellectual background, and developmental stage represent internal variables; socioeconomic factors are an external variable.

Answer to Question 2

D
The presence of a risk factor does not mean that a disease will develop, but risk factors increase the chances that the individual will experience a particular disease. Age increases susceptibility to certain diseases. Risk factors influence health beliefs and practices if a person is aware of their presence.
