Answer to Question 1

B
Feedback:
In type I diabetes, the client is typically younger than 30 years, classic symptoms are nearly always present, hereditary factors are occasionally present, and the client is normal weight to underweight. In type II diabetes, the client is typically older than 30 years, classic symptoms are usually not present, hereditary factors are usually present, and the client is usually overweight.

Answer to Question 2

B
Feedback:
In Roux-en-Y gastric bypass a smaller stomach is surgically designed to form a gastric pouch, which is connected directly to the jejunum (bypassing the rest of the stomach and the duodenum). With laparoscopic gastric band surgery, an adjustable, bracelet-like band is placed around the top of the stomach, which produces a smaller stomach. With vertical sleeve gastrectomy, one side of the stomach is removed leaving a much smaller banana-sized stomach. Biliopancreatic diversion with duodenal switch is similar to Roux-en-Y gastric bypass but is more complex. A large portion of the stomach is removed; the small intestine and bile and digestive juices are diverted.
