Answer:

B. ApoA

Explanation:

Apolipoprotein A is a protein carried in HDL ("good") cholesterol. It helps start the process for HDL to remove bad types of cholesterol from your body. In this way, apolipoprotein A can help to lower your risk for cardiovascular disease.

Therefore, loss in ApoA will result in increased "bad" cholesterol since HDL process is not started, this will result in symptoms such as blurred vision

Answer:

2. "The faster I gain weight, the faster I will return to school."

Explanation:

Anorexia nervosa is an eating disorder in which the person dangerously restricts their food intake. They develop a body image issue and feel that they are overweight even when they can have a perfectly normal weight. They starve themselves which eventually harms the body in the long run.

A person recovering from anorexia nervosa should gain weight slowly. If they suddenly start to consume a lot of food, the body will be put under lot of stress. It is already recovering from starvation and the organs have become weak due to it. If suddenly too much food is consumed, it will have to work extra hard to digest and assimilate it. This can put lot of pressure and shock on heart, liver, stomach etc. Thus, it is recommended not to gain more than 2 lbs or 1kg in a week.

Hence, "The faster I gain weight, the faster I will return to school" statement by client is incorrect and they require further teaching.
