Answer to Question 1

FALSE
Explanation: The PET scan is a radiologic procedure that shows areas of abnormal metabolism in the brain related to dementia and Alzheimer's disease.

Answer to Question 2

The three types of muscle in the body are skeletal muscle, cardiac muscle, and smooth muscle. Skeletal muscles provide the means by which the body can move. They are voluntary, striated muscles that contract and relax in response to conscious thought. Cardiac muscle is an involuntary muscle that is not under conscious control. Smooth muscles are involuntary, nonstriated muscles. They are found in organs such as the stomach and intestines.
