MULTIPLE CHOICE

1. When asked by new parents what the life expectancy is for their African American newborn,the nurse
replies that, “2015 statistics indicate that your son:
a. will have a life expectancy of approximately 65 years.”
b. can realistically expect to live into his late 80s.”
c. has a good chance of celebrating his 75th birthday.”
d. is likely to live into his late 90s.”
ANS: C
The overall life expectancy at birth in the United States in 2015 was 78.8. The disparity between life
expectancies for black and white Americans has narrowed significantly between 1999 and 2015, with the
death rate for blacks (African Americans) dropping by 25% (Office of Minority Health, 2017). Of the
options above, C is the only response that fitsinto those parameters. The other options are not supported
by reliable research.

a. Most super-centenarians are functionally independent or require minimalassistance
with activities N

.
b. The majority of super-centenarians have cognitive impairment.
c. The number of super-centenarians is expected to decrease in coming years as aresult of
heart disease and stroke.
d. It is theorized that super-centenarians survived as long as they have due to geneticmutations
that made them less susceptible to common diseases.
ANS: A
Research supports that most super-centenarians are functionally and cognitively intact, requiring minimal
assistance with ADLs. The number of super-centenarians is expected to increase in coming years as the
number of older adults increases. Although centenarians stillcarry genetic markers within their
chromosomes for any number of health problems, for as yet unknown reasons, these are not “activated”
until much later, if at all, when compared with other persons.

3. One reason why many “baby boomers” have multiple chronic conditions such as heartdisease,
diabetes, and arthritis is that:

b. there was a lack of importance placed on healthy living as they were growing up.
c. they did not have access to immunizations against communicable disease whenthey were
children.
