Solution

The group would need additional teaching if they identified "Family history" as a modifiable risk factor for coronary artery disease (CAD). This is because family history is a non-modifiable risk factor, meaning it cannot be changed. On the other hand, cigarette smoking, hypercholesterolemia, and hypertension are all modifiable risk factors, as they can be controlled or changed through lifestyle adjustments or medical treatment.
