Answers:
1) Utah. The leading causes of cancer are attributed to age and smoking. As a whole, Utah has a young population and a low rate of smoking.
2) Middle finger. Don’t ask us why, because we have no idea. And in case you’re wondering, the slowest growing nail is the thumb.
3) Coffee. Peanut butter comes in second.
4) 25%. There are several factors that affect a person’s blood alcohol content, but the average female carries more body fat than the average male, and body fat contains little water. Therefore, most women have less body water to dilute the alcohol, leaving a higher concentration of alcohol in women’s bodies.
5) Collar Bone. Mostly sustained from athletic injuries.
