Answer to Question 1

C
Depression is thought to be related to lowered availability of the neurotransmitter serotonin. SSRIs act by blocking reuptake of serotonin, leaving a higher concentration available at the synaptic cleft. SSRIs prevent destruction of serotonin. SSRIs have little or no effect on acetylcholine and dopamine production. SSRIs do not produce muscarinic or 1 norepinephrine blockade.

Answer to Question 2

A
Machismo is defined as compulsive masculinity that results in aggressive and violent behavior directed toward women, which occurs as the result of socialization of this behavior throughout childhood.
