Answer to Question 1

A
Feedback:
Release of energy from carbohydrate, fat, and protein occurs with niacin. Synthesis of DNA and RNA, and the formation of red and white blood cells occur with folate/folic acid. Folate metabolism and blood cell formation occur with cobalamin; growth, cell metabolism, appetite, and neurologic functioning occur with thiamine.

Answer to Question 2

A
Feedback:
More flexible working and retirement schedules, opportunities for volunteer work, and recognition of past contributions are necessary to maximize the resources within the older adult population. Financial planning needs to begin in early adulthood to promote self-sufficiency and independence in old age.
