Answer to Question 1

liquid with sugar

Rationale: Patients that have taken insulin, but not any food may develop hypoglycemia. Hypoglycemia may present with sudden weakness, hunger, shakiness, and could result in loss of consciousness. While a patient is alert, treatment could be sweet fruit juice or hard candy. Have the patient sit or lie down until the sugar begins to work.

Answer to Question 2

static

Rationale: When films slide across a flat surface in a low-humidity environment, static discharge may result, which appears as a plus density.
