Question 1 • SHS Alt Psychology S2 - 2021

One way bulimia is different from anorexia is that bulimia __________.

Answer
A
does not pose any real danger to the individual
B
may cause an individual to become obsessed with food
C
is hard to detect because the person’s weight is often normal
D
often causes the individual to starve themselves

Explanation

Bulimia can be difficult to recognize because a person may maintain a weight in the normal range, unlike anorexia, which often involves significantly low body weight. Therefore, the correct choice is “is hard to detect because the person’s weight is often normal.” Bulimia is still dangerous, so choice A is incorrect.
