Answer to Question 1

C
Psychological factors, such as age-related concerns about sexual performance, may contribute to functional impotence. Atonic impotence may result from the use of prescribed medications, alcohol, cocaine, nicotine, or disease processes such as diabetes or vascular or neurological disorders. Anatomic disorders such as Peyronie's disease can also cause impotence.

Answer to Question 2

A
Atherosclerosis, the narrowing and hardening of arteries created by the buildup of lipids, collagen, and smooth muscle cells, reduces arterial blood flow and results in decreased perfusion to body cells beyond the narrowed or hardened area. It is the loss of arterial elasticity occurring with arteriosclerosis that leads to conditions such as myocardial infarction, stroke, and peripheral vascular disease.
