Answer to Question 1

C
Panic attacks can be caused by the introduction of various chemicals into the body, thus supporting a biological theory of etiology. Patients experiencing panic attacks frequently have close relatives who experience panic attacks, a finding that suggests a genetic tie. Theories suggesting that psychological conflicts, trauma, or developmental issues contribute to panic disorder have not been well supported by research.

Answer to Question 2

A
The Patient Self-Determination Act of 1990 requires that patients receive clear information and have the opportunity to prepare advance directives.
