Answer to Question 1

B, D, E
Christianity accounts for 78 of the U.S. population and includes Protestant, Mormon, Catholic, and some orthodox groups. Judaism and Buddhism are not Christian religions.

Answer to Question 2

A, C
Two neurotransmitters believed to be in low concentration at brain synapses of patients with depression are norepinephrine and serotonin. Most antidepressants act to increase availability of one or both of these neurotransmitters. Dopamine is implicated in schizophrenia; acetylcholine is implicated in Alzheimer's disease. Substance P modulates pain.
