Answer to Question 1

B
A distorted body image means that an individual's perception of his or her body differs from re-ality. The distortion is the difference between perception and reality rather than an actual distor-tion in body proportions. Distorted body image is often associated with dissatisfaction with per-sonal appearance, but an individual may have an accurate body image and still be dissatisfied.

Answer to Question 2

3
