Answer to Question 1

C
A true clinical trial is blinded when the subjects in the trial do not know whether they are receiving the active treatment or a placebo treatment. Placebo treatments are thought to have no specific effect on the expected outcome.

Answer to Question 2

C
Sleep terrors are related parasomnia in which there is no recall of the sleep-related event. Individuals experiencing sleep terrors rouse suddenly from sleep with a cry or scream. They typically sit up in bed in apparent terror; sweaty, pupils dilated, tachypneic, and tachycardic.

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.
