Answer to Question 1

Answer: C

Answer to Question 2

Answer: Stress can reduce a person's appetite, or cause an upset stomach or other symptoms that cause a person to avoid eating. But for many, stress induces a longing for sweets, chips, or other comfort foods high in calories. Both children and adults can experience weight gain if they attempt to cope with stress by overeating. Moreover, researchers have long acknowledged an incomebody weight gradient by which economic stressors provoke metabolic changes that are associated with increased weight.
