Answer to Question 1

B

Answer to Question 2

C
Albinism is not one of the pathophysiological risk factors for delirium. Common causes for delirium are infections, dehydration, adverse drug reaction, electrolyte imbalances, hypoglycemia, and hypoxia. However, any condition the impairs the central nervous system, particularly neurotransmitter and brain function, may cause delirium.
