Answer to Question 1

BAER analyzes the brain's response to sounds. The patient listens as an audiometer produces a series of clicks. Electroencephalogra phy (EEG) is performed at the same time. A lesion or tumor in the auditory cortex of the brain or on the vestibulocochlear nerve will produce an abnormal BAER.

Answer to Question 2

FALSE
Explanation: Suppressor genes inhibit mitosis and keep each cell from dividing excessively.
