Answer to Question 1

C
Horner's syndrome is caused by a tumor near the lung apex that damages the nerve passing from the upper chest to the neck, resulting in eyelid droop, a small pupil, and minimal or absent perspiration on the affected side of the face.

Answer to Question 2

D
Oxygen consumption is the amount of oxygen used by the body and increases with exercise. At rest, an adult consumes about 250 mL/min. Oxygen use is not inversely related to carbon dioxide production.
