Answer to Question 1

A
Feedback:
Hypnosis is an extreme state of sedation in which the person no longer senses or reacts to incoming stimuli. A state of tranquility is produced through minor tranquilizers by decreasing anxiety. Anxiety is a feeling of tension, nervousness, apprehension, or fear. Sedation is the loss of awareness and reaction to environmental stimuli, which may lead to drowsiness. The state of suggestibility often seen in television programs is not an appropriate definition of hypnosis. If the brain stopped sending signals, the patient would stop breathing and death would follow.

Answer to Question 2

D
Feedback:
Cholinergic receptors or acetylcholine receptors of the parasympathetic nervous system are found on organs and muscles. They have been classified as muscarinic receptors and nicotinic receptors. Because these receptors are part of the parasympathetic nervous system, all other options are incorrect.
