Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
About 90 of falls end with a hip fracture.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: D
Growth and development happens from infancy to death. Muscular changes are always happening, and these changes affect the individual and his or her performance in life. Aging, illness, health, and wellness do have an effect on a person, but they don't always affect mobility.
