Answer to Question 1

B
To succeed in a malpractice suit, the plaintiff must first show that the defendant owed him a duty. The plaintiff must then show that the defendant did not meet the duty and that this breach of duty caused harm, requiring compensation.

Answer to Question 2

C
Psychoneuroimmunolo gy is studying the complex relationship between the mind and body. Those who engage in this field of study investigate how the brain transmits signals along the nerves to enhance the body's normal immune functioning. This type of research supports the idea that the human mind and psychosocial support can alter physiology.
