Answer to Question 1

rectifier

Rationale: Rectifiers will change alternating current into direct current. Alternating current is typically used in the primary circuit because the transformer will only work with alternating current.

Answer to Question 2

1st metatarsophalangeal joint

Rationale: Gout, typically hereditary, causes uric acid crystals to build up in joint spaces and an inflamed and painful joint. Gout commonly begins by affecting the first metatarsophalangeal joint.
