Answer to Question 1

C
Advocacy is the process of providing the client with information, support, and feedback needed to make a decision, and the obligation to act in the best interest of the client. The other options do not demonstrate advocacy and caring behaviors.

Answer to Question 2

C
Obsession is constantly thinking about something, and compulsion is acting it out. Phobia is irrational fear, and anxiety reaction is not a used term.
