Answer to Question 1

C
Feedback:
Hypoglycemia can occur from taking too much insulin, inadequate food intake, delayed or skipped meals, extra physical activity, or consumption of alcohol without food.

Answer to Question 2

B
24 g carbohydrate provides 24 x 4 = 96 kcals. 2 g fat provides 2 x 9 = 18 kcals. 4 g protein pro-vides 4 x 4 = 16 kcals. Therefore the total kcals in the frozen yogurt is 96 + 18 + 16 = 130 kcals.
