Answer to Question 1

Ans: C
Sensory deficits in vision and hearing interfere with one's ability to interact with other people and with the environment.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: A
The reticular activating system (RAS) mediates arousal. The adrenal glands are endocrine glands that have many functions, but do not control arousal or alertness. The renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system has to do with fluid balance and blood pressure. The cranial nerves have a role in many of the body's abilities, but not arousal.
