Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
Mild brain injury is characterized by no loss of consciousness and no abnormal neurologic findings.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
LSD causes flashbacks, or bad trips, unpredictably, and the flashbacks may occur years after ingestion of the drug. LSD is not considered an addictive drug and does not stimulate drug-seeking behavior. Hypertension is not a typical side effect of LSD.
