Answer to Question 1

Answer: 2
Explanation: Orgasm is mediated by norepinephrine, produced by the sympathetic nervous system. While dopamine, epinephrine, and nitric oxide are involved in orgasm, these are not the mediating agents.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: 2
Explanation: According to the sexual response cycle, excitement or arousal is a vascular phenomenon involving the parasympathetic nervous system. The sympathetic, renin-angiotensin-aldosterone, and peripheral nervous systems are not involved in the primary physiology of excitement or arousal.
