Answer to Question 1

B
Often, a bulimic has a body weight that is normal or even slightly above average. Pica is a disorder in which the individual is eating abnormal substances. Obese individuals are above normal weight, and individuals with anorexia nervosa have less than normal weight.

Answer to Question 2

C
The use of five axes requires assessment beyond diagnosis of a mental disorder and includes relevant medical conditions, psychosocial and environmental problems, and global assessment of functioning. The DSM-IV-TR does not include treatment plans or nursing diagnoses. It does not use specific biopsychosocial theories.
