Answer to Question 1

Responses will vary and should clearly differentiate between the emotions of the
limbic system and the logic and rational thinking of the prefrontal cortex.

Answer to Question 2

The 18-year-old's superior performance is due to his or her faster reaction time,
increased heart and lung capacity, increased physical endurance, reduced likelihood
of asthma, and greater strength.
