Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
Parasympathetic motor neurons release acetylcholine. Adrenergic motor neurons release epineph-rine. Serotonin is associated with the brain. Substance P is a neurotransmitter in pain transmission pathways. Blocking the release of substance P by morphine reduces pain.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
The circle of Willis ensures collateral blood circulation. Collateral circulation is not associated with the basal artery or the vertebral arteries. The carotid arteries supply the brain.
