Answer to Question 1

a

Answer to Question 2

Anorexia and bulimia both have a moderate to strong genetic basis.
Brain abnormalities governing appetite regulation, emotional regulation, and impulse control have been found in both disorders.
Sociocultural factors and peer group influences may lead some teens to feel a pressure to be thin and body dissatisfaction, which when combined with depressive symptoms can lead to anorexia or bulimia.
Studies are finding that individuals may exhibit mixtures of both anorexia and bulimia symptoms at various times.
Binge eating disorder is actually more common than the other two conditions, and is associated with feelings of shame, and a tendency to become overweight, but not much else is known about etiology.
