Answer to Question 1

D
When a difference in power exists, as between a student and teacher or nurse and patient, the relationship is said to be complementary. Symmetrical relationships exist between individuals of like or equal status. Incongruent and paralinguistic are not terms used to describe relationships.

Answer to Question 2

The stress response is also called the fight-or-flight response.
