Answer to Question 1

Ans: D
With increased interactions with other children in school, communicable conditions, such as scabies, impetigo, and head lice, are more prevalent. The other choices are not appropriate educational topics for parents of elementary school children.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: B

Adolescents and young adults who engage in unprotected sexual intercourse are at a higher risk for contracting sexually transmitted diseases (and their complications) than are adults. All STDs, especially AIDS, pose serious health threats.
