Answer to Question 1

C
The body is unable to synthesize vitamins in the required amounts and depends on dietary intake. The exception to this is vitamin K, which the body synthesizes by bacteria in the intestine. In addition, the body produces vitamin D as a response to sunlight exposure. Vitamin A and B6 must be obtained from the diet.

Answer to Question 2

D
Regression is coping with a stressor through actions and behaviors associated with an earlier developmental period. Compensation is making up for a deficiency in one aspect of self-image by strongly emphasizing a feature considered an asset. Conversion is unconsciously repressing an anxiety-producing emotional conflict and transforming it into nonorganic symptoms (e.g., difficulty sleeping, loss of appetite). Denial is avoiding emotional conflicts by refusing to consciously acknowledge anything that causes intolerable emotional pain.
