Answer to Question 1

C
The concept of ego disintegration is distinctly freudian. Freud is considered a developmental theorist. This theory is not considered biologic, interpersonal, or stress-vulnerability based.

Answer to Question 2

D
Concordancy rates are 50 for monozygotic twins. This rate is 50 times higher than for the general population. The other options are not accurate representations of research data.
