Answer to Question 1

C
Prior life experiences with pets is a major factor influencing a client's desire to participate in animal-assisted therapy (AAT). Individuals who have had previous pets may have experienced pleasure with interacting with their pets. Often pets and their owners form a bond that can be very strong. Pets are often used to reduce feelings of loneliness.

Answer to Question 2

C
Compulsions are repetitive behaviors or acts. The compulsions serve as a method of reducing the anxiety that the person experiences from the obsessive thoughts.

Early clockmakers apparently thought that the IIII balanced out the VIII (used for the number 8) on the clock face and that it just looked better.
