Answer to Question 1

D
Feedback:
Nutrition therapy for malabsorption disorders is individualized according to the symptoms and complications.

Answer to Question 2

C
Type 2 diabetes is becoming more prevalent in children because of the increasing prevalence of overweight children. This is related to decreased activity levels and increased intake of kcals in general, not just from refined sugar. Increased awareness and diagnosis may account for a small portion of the increase in prevalence, but this is not the major cause. There is no specific domi-nant gene that causes type 2 diabetes in children.
