Answer to Question 1

4
Regular insulin may be given intravenously or subcutaneously. All other insulins are given subcutaneously.

Answer to Question 2

1
Cigarettes smoking doubles the risk of renal cell carcinoma. Obesity, not being underweight, is a risk factor. Hypertension, not hypotension, is a risk factor. Type 2 diabetes mellitus is not a risk factor for the development of the disease.
