Answer to Question 1

B
Feedback:
The transmission of information between two nerves or between a nerve and a gland or muscle is chemical. Options A, C, and D are incorrect.

Answer to Question 2

A
Feedback:
Metformin and pioglitazone have proven effective in increasing insulin sensitivity and decreasing androgen and luteinizing hormone levels to break the cycle and allow ovulation to occur if pregnancy is desired. A fertility drug is often used with the antidiabetic agent. Other options are not appropriate because they are not indicated for treating polycystic ovary syndrome.
