Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
When there is inadequate insulin coverage for the type 1 diabetic, the diabetic lacks the glycogen to use as energy and attempts to use fat, which creates an acid in the form of ketones.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A
Melanomas are dark, irregularly shaped lesions that may cause itching or bleeding. These are potentially deadly and should be reported to obtain quick treatment.
