Answer to Question 1

D
Feedback:
Most available evidence shows a link between obesity, especially abdominal obesity and GERD and that weight loss improves symptoms.

Answer to Question 2

D
Moderate alcohol intake may help reduce risk of heart disease. Risk of many types of cancer in-creases with increasing alcohol intake. Risk of hypertension increases with alcohol intake. Risk of stroke is not linked to alcohol intake.

There can actually be a 25-hour time difference between certain locations in the world. The International Date Line passes between the islands of Samoa and American Samoa. It is not a straight line, but "zig-zags" around various island chains. Therefore, Samoa and nearby islands have one date, while American Samoa and nearby islands are one day behind. Daylight saving time is used in some islands, but not in others—further shifting the hours out of sync with natural time.
