Answer to Question 1

A, B, C
Feedback:
Research is ongoing to obtain approval for an implantable insulin pump, an insulin patch, and inhaled insulin. Insulin cannot be taken orally because it is destroyed by gastric secretions and transplanting a pancreas for treatment for diabetes is not likely.

Answer to Question 2

A, B, C
Feedback:
The forebrain is made up of two cerebral hemispheres joined together by the corpus callosum. The two hemispheres contain the sensory and motor neurons. It also contains areas that coordinate speech and communication and is thought to be where learning takes place. Cranial nerves emerge from the hindbrain, which is where the swallowing center is located as well.
