Answer to Question 1

D
Deep sedation is used when the patient must be unresponsive to deliver necessary care safely.

Answer to Question 2

C
The loss of exocrine function leads to malabsorption and steatorrhea. In chronic pancreatitis, the loss of endocrine function results in impaired glucose intolerance. Anorexia is the result of an inability to eat or not eating. Obesity would result from consuming more than the RDA of calories based on one's body type.
