Answer to Question 1

A
Strategies for self-care of PMDD may include stress management exercises, some lifestyle changes, and maintaining a healthy diet rich in complex carbohydrates and fiber (like whole-grain breads and pastas or lentils). Alcohol, red meat, and sugar exacerbate the symptoms of PMDD.

Answer to Question 2

B
Surfactant is the substance that reduces the surface tension of the walls of the alveoli, making gas exchange more effective.
