Answer to Question 1

B
Parasympathetic nervous system response results in a sense of relaxation and well-being. Parasympathetic system response activation brings about decreases in heart and respiratory rate, dilation of peripheral blood vessels, lowered blood pressure, and increased flow of endorphins, the body's own chemicals that increase a sense of well-being.

Answer to Question 2

D
Upon returning home the combat veteran finds that he no longer has the psychological and emotional support of his comrades in arms. He finds little solace from family and friends who cannot share his experiences and often has difficulty assimilating to his previous life. A support group comprised of fellow military personnel would be the most positive form of assistance to provide long-term positive readjustment to civilian life.
