Answer to Question 1

C
Alogia refers to the tendency of individuals with schizophrenia to speak very little and, even when speaking openly, to use brief and often seemingly empty phrases.

Answer to Question 2

C
The nurse would expect that the student would most likely be 17 years old. The average age of onset of anorexia nervosa is 17 . This disorder is often associated with stressful life events such as leaving home to attend college.
