Incorrect - A high-stress lifestyle can contribute to various health issues, but it is not a genetic risk factor for aneurysms. Stress may exacerbate hypertension, which is a known risk factor.

Incorrect - A sedentary lifestyle is a behavioral risk factor for aneurysms, not a genetic one. Lack of physical activity can contribute to hypertension and other risk factors.
