Answer to Question 1

D
Feedback:
Because phentermine inhibits the reuptake of both serotonin and norepinephrine, it directly affects physiologic factors related to obesity.

Answer to Question 2

B
Feedback:
Antidiuretic hormone is also called vasopressin and is released in response to blood loss. Luteinizing hormone is important in ovulation. Oxytocin functions in childbirth and lactation. Melanocyte-stimulating hormone plays a role in skin pigmentation.
