Question 1 of 5
Which best describes the purpose of the core-based statistical areas (CBSA) system?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A because the CBSA system simplifies population distribution by grouping counties based on economic ties to urban areas. It helps analyze economic and social trends at a regional level. Choice B is incorrect because the CBSA system focuses on economic relationships, not just urban vs. metropolitan areas. Choice C is incorrect as it tracks urban and suburban areas, not rural development specifically. Choice D is incorrect as the CBSA system primarily focuses on urban and suburban demographics, not rural areas.
Question 2 of 5
Which fact is noteworthy about adolescent males who are driving without a license in the countryside?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Step 1: The question specifies adolescent males driving without a license in the countryside. Step 2: Choice B is correct because it specifies that they are typically black or Hispanic and live in rural areas. Step 3: This demographic information aligns with statistical data showing higher rates of unlicensed driving among minority groups in rural areas. Step 4: Choices A, C, and D do not specifically address the demographic characteristics of adolescent males driving without a license in rural areas, making them incorrect.
Question 3 of 5
Which statement best describes how firearm injuries are different in rural areas compared with urban areas?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Rationale: Choice B is correct because nonfatal firearm injuries are more common in the home in rural areas due to higher rates of gun ownership and hunting activities. Choice A is incorrect as hunting season does not determine injury rates. Choice C is incorrect as urban areas typically have higher fatality rates due to quicker access to medical care. Choice D is incorrect as firearm injuries are actually more common in rural areas.
Question 4 of 5
As a concerned citizen and professional, a nurse encourages the local senators and representatives to support expansion of health clinics for the poverty stricken. Which location is in most desperate need?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: Step 1: Migrant and seasonal farmworkers often lack access to healthcare due to remote locations and lack of resources. Step 2: These workers face occupational health risks and need immediate medical attention. Step 3: Expanding health clinics in rural areas can address these needs effectively. Step 4: Other choices lack the same level of urgency and specific healthcare needs as migrant farmworkers.
Question 5 of 5
Which statement best describes how working on a farm is different from working in a factory?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is C: The worksite and the home are the same. This is because on a farm, the workers typically live on the farm itself or in close proximity, blurring the lines between work and home. This can lead to longer working hours and less separation between personal and work life compared to factory workers who typically commute to a separate worksite. Explanation for why the other choices are incorrect: A: Factories have more dangerous dust than farming dust - This statement is not directly related to the difference between working on a farm and in a factory. B: Farm chemicals are more immediately fatal than most industrial chemicals - While farm chemicals can be dangerous, this statement does not address the difference in worksite environment. D: Workers on farms, unlike those in factories, can bring dangerous substances home on their clothing, which expose their families - This statement focuses on the potential impact on families but does not directly address the difference in worksite environment.
