Answer to Question 1

ANS: B, D, E
Populations at risk for vitamin D deficiency include overweight or obese children, children with diets low in sources of vitamin D, and children of families who use milk products not supplemented with vitamin D. Children with dark, not fair, pigmentation and children who are exclusively breast fed, not bottle fed, are also at risk.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A, B, C
Epinephrine increases activation of the sympathetic nervous system. Adverse effects include nausea, tremors, and irritability. Tachycardia would occur, not bradycardia, and hypertension, not hypotension, would occur.
