Answer to Question 1

C
Magnesium deficiency may occur secondary to excessive vomiting and diarrhea. Lactation, type 1 diabetes, and dehydration due to heat exposure do not cause magnesium deficiency.

Answer to Question 2

B
A good vegan source of calcium is a bean burrito because legumes contain calcium. Coconut milk and pasta salad are not good sources of calcium. Skim milk is not included in a vegan diet.
