The correct answer is: The dangers of smoking are well known by most people.
To arrive at this answer, we can use the provided responses and examine each one to see which one accurately reflects the influence of changes in public policy on smoking.
The first response states that people must now be at least 19 years old to purchase cigarettes. While this may be a policy implemented in some areas, it does not reflect the overall influence of changes in public policy on smoking.
The second response mentions that the dangers of smoking are well known by most people. This accurate reflects the influence of changes in public policy on smoking, as public education campaigns and policy changes have been successful in spreading awareness about the risks associated with smoking.
The third response states that there is no longer any risk of illnesses from second-hand smoke. This is not accurate, as there is still a risk of illnesses from second-hand smoke, although public policy changes have resulted in increased restrictions on smoking in public places to mitigate this risk.
The fourth response states that tobacco products are not allowed to be sold in grocery stores. While there may be restrictions on where tobacco products can be sold, this response is not accurate in the context of the broader influence of changes in public policy on smoking.
Therefore, the correct answer is that changes in public policy have resulted in the dangers of smoking being well known by most people.

The correct answer is: the FDA.
To arrive at this answer, we can use the provided responses and examine each one to see which one accurately reflects the organization responsible for ensuring the safety of food preparation processes.

The third response mentions the CDC (Centers for Disease Control). While the CDC plays an important role in monitoring and responding to foodborne illnesses, it is not the organization directly responsible for ensuring the safety of food preparation processes.
The fourth response mentions the FDA (Food and Drug Administration). The FDA is the correct answer, as they are the organization responsible for overseeing the safety of food in the United States, including ensuring that food is prepared safely.
Therefore, the correct answer is that the FDA makes sure the food is prepared safely.

The correct answer is: They make sure medicines do what they claim to do.
To determine the most likely responsibility of the FDA, we can examine each response and consider the primary role and responsibilities of the FDA.
The first response states that the FDA offers discount health insurance to people who need it. While promoting public health is an important aspect of the FDA's work, offering health insurance is not part of their responsibilities.
The second response mentions that the FDA provides fresh fruits and vegetables and clean water to people. While access to safe and nutritious food and water is important for public health, this is not a responsibility of the FDA.
The third response states that the FDA investigates diseases to help stop them from spreading. While disease investigation and control may be part of public health efforts, this is not the primary responsibility of the FDA.
The fourth response mentions that the FDA makes sure medicines do what they claim to do. This is the correct answer, as ensuring the safety and effectiveness of medications is a key responsibility of the FDA.
Therefore, the most likely responsibility of the FDA that would be on Enzo's list is that they make sure medicines do what they claim to do.
