Answer to Question 1

C

Answer to Question 2

Whenever the body has severely limited nutrition over a significant period of time (as during fasting, famine, or severe malnutrition), it attempts to conserve both energy and its tissues. If the situation goes on long enough, the body breaks down first stored fat, then muscle tissue, then internal organs as sources of energy. Organ deterioration is greatest in the liver and intestinal tract. During prolonged starvation, adults can lose up to 50 percent of their body weight.
