The correct answer is A. Carbohydrates contain a lot of glucose, and insulin regulates blood glucose.

Explanation:

Glucose is a substance produced by the liver, this substance is important for the metabolism because it regulates glucose levels in the blood by making cells absorb glucose and use it for different functions or store it. This also implies the higher the glucose level in food is the more insulin is produced. Due to this, the intake of carbohydrates that contain a lot of glucose causes the body to release insulin as the body breaks carbohydrates into glucose and the level of glucose is soon regulated by insulin. According to this, the reason body releases insulin after a meal high in carbohydrates is "Carbohydrates contain a lot of glucose, and insulin regulates blood glucose".

2. A piece of advice I would give tony is that he should talk to a relative or a trusted adult and just let out all what he's feeling at the moment. He could try making friends who understand him, or have been at that point in life. He could also try talking to either parent about the situation and tell them how he  feels.
