Answer to Question 1

D
Carbon monoxide poisoning will cause anemic hypoxia because the hemoglobin cannot carry oxygen. Cyanide poisoning will cause histotoxic hypoxia because the tissue cells will not be able to metabolize oxygen. Decreased cardiac output or heart failure will cause circulatory hypoxia because the heart will not deliver enough blood and oxygen to the tissues. Polycythemia does not cause hypoxia.

Answer to Question 2

D
All of the listed symptoms are associated with myasthenia gravis.
