Answer to Question 1

Correct Answer: 1, 2, 3, 5
Rationale: Internal variables that affect people's health include biologic, psychologic, and cognitive dimensions. Biologic dimensions include genetic makeup.

Answer to Question 2

Correct Answer: 3
Rationale: According to Dunn's grid, the health axis extends from peak wellness to death, and the environmental axis extends from very favorable to very unfavorable. Emergent high-level wellness in an unfavorable environment would include clients who have the knowledge to implement healthy lifestyle practices, but cannot implement them because of other factors or demands.
