Answer to Question 1

C
Pedophilia is fondling and/or other types of sexual activities with a prepubescent child (usually under age 13 years and having not yet developed secondary sex characteristics). Sexual sadism is sexual arousal achieved by inflicting pain or humiliation on someone else, voyeurism is sexual arousal achieved by observing unsuspecting persons in the act of disrobing or engaging in sexual activity. Necrophilia deals with sexual activity with a corpse.

Answer to Question 2

B
Most first-generation antipsychotic (FGA) medications often produce sedation and extrapyramidal side effects such as tremor, stiffness, and gait disturbance, effects the patient might describe as making him feel like a zombie.. The side effects mentioned in the other options are usually not associated with FGA therapy.
