Answer to Question 1

1
Hoarding is the act of collecting and saving seemingly useless items.

Answer to Question 2

B
Overcontrol of eating behaviors, extreme weight loss, amenorrhea, preoccupation with food, and wearing several layers of loose clothing to appear larger are part of the clinical picture of an individual with anorexia nervosa. The bulimic individual usually is near normal weight. The binge eater is often overweight. The patient with eating disorder not otherwise specified may be obese.
