Answer to Question 1

Ans: D
A Harvard University Medical School committee added that the nonreversible loss of brain function, accompanied by the more traditional signs, should be the definitive definition of death.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: A
Unresolved grief is abnormal or distorted; it may be either unresolved or inhibited. In unresolved grief, a person may have trouble expressing feelings of loss or may deny them; unresolved grief also describes a state of bereavement that extends over a lengthy period. With inhibited grief, a person suppresses feelings of grief and may instead manifest somatic (body) symptoms, such as abdominal pain or heart palpitations.
