Answer to Question 1

A, B, C
Psychobiological theories about the causes of mental illness relate to genetics, neurotransmitter activity, viruses, fetal development, and immune system dysfunction.

Answer to Question 2

B
Individuals with adjustment disorders have the greatest difficulty in adapting to new situations. Therefore, beginning college has the most stress potential because it has no familiar aspect to it, as the other options do.
