1. What is your estimate of the population of pregnant woman needing tetanus toxoid vaccination?
- A. 632.5 C. 450.5
- B. 512.5 D. 332.5

2. The information-processing approach views the human mind as a __________.
- A. socially mediated process
- B. collection of stimuli and responses
- C. system of genetically programmed behaviors
- D. symbol-manipulating system through which information flows
