Answer to Question 1

A
Feedback:
The testes are made up of two distinct parts: the seminiferous tubules, which produce the sperm, and the interstitial or Leydig cells, which produce the hormone testosterone. Other components include the vas deferens, which stores produced sperm and carries sperm from the testes to be ejaculated from the body.

Answer to Question 2

C
Feedback:
Hypnotics are used to help people fall asleep by causing sedation. Drugs that are effective hypnotics act on the reticular activating system and block the brain's response to incoming stimuli. Hypnosis, therefore, is the extreme state of sedation, in which the person no longer senses or reacts to incoming stimuli. The other options are incorrect.
