Answer to Question 1

B
For a patient with anorexia nervosa, the major issue is about control of the person's life and fears. Whether the fear is of maturity, independence, failure, sexuality, or parental demands, patients with anorexia nervosa believe the solution to the problem lies in controlling their food intake and their bodies. With increasing family concern, patients with anorexia nervosa also control the focus of significant others.

Answer to Question 2

B
Genetic counselors are trained to diagnose and explain disorders from a genetic perspective. They can review available options for testing and treatment and provide emotional support to individuals or families who have genetic disorders, are at risk for them, or need information about risks to their offspring.
