Answer to Question 1

D
Biological evidence points to several links to mood disorders including defects in neurotransmitter imbalances, which excite or inhibit brain circuits involved in mood regulation and can cause depression. Anger turned inward is a psychoanalytical theory belief. Impaired nurturing and reactions to external stressors are supported by social theorists.

Answer to Question 2

A
Transference is a client's emotional response based on earlier relationships.
The most outstanding characteristic of transference is the inappropriateness of the client's responses. Secondary gain occurs when clients profit from or avoid unpleasant situations by remaining ill. Countertransference is based on caregiver's inappropriate response.
