the risk of developing diabetes is how much higher for active smokers than nonsmokers?
10-20%
60-70%
30-40%
80-90%

Explanation:

For the first question: Maternal smoking during pregnancy restricts fetal oxygen and nutrient flow, increasing the risk of low birth weight, preterm delivery, and sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS). All listed outcomes are associated with prenatal smoking.
For the second question: Epidemiological research shows active smokers have a 30-40% higher risk of developing diabetes compared to nonsmokers, due to smoking's impact on insulin resistance and pancreatic function.

Answer:

1. All of the above
2. 30-40%
