Answer to Question 1

F

Answer to Question 2

D
The parasympathetic responses promote rest and effective digestion. In general, the parasympathetic response has the opposite effect from the sympathetic response, which promotes a feeling of flight or fight. When the parasympathetic system is activated, the alpha brain wave state is a deepened state of relaxation. Assisting the individual to achieve a relaxation state helps the individual to access inner resources that may be absent during periods of anxiety.
