Answer to Question 1

Ans: B
In females, sexual arousal disorder frequently has a hormonal etiology. Anatomical causes are less common, though these may contribute to dyspareunia. Electrolyte imbalances and the presence of metabolic syndrome are less likely to cause the problem.

Ans: A
Among the factors that often precede sexual aggression in children are neglect and abuse. Perinatal hypoxia, the practice of cross-dressing, and chromosomal abnormalities are not identified as associated or causative factors.
