Answer to Question 1

A
Gatekeeping is a process that limits direct access to specialists, hospitals, and expensive procedures. Patients select a primary care provider who manages everyday care and is a gatekeeper for referral to other health care providers.

Answer to Question 2

C
The cortex is recognized as having the most significant role in regulating emotions. There may be a cognitive association, associations related to previous behaviors, or even cognitive misperception.
