Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
Epilepsy is the erratic electrical rhythms in the brain that can cause disabling behaviors. It most commonly causes convulsive seizures.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: D
A neurorrhaphy provides precise approximation of nerve ends to restore function. Primary repair takes place when the epineurium, or outer sheath, is sutured.
