Answer to Question 1

C
The limbic system in the brain mediates emotions and includes the hypothalamus, the pituitary gland, and the amygdala. The limbic system possesses receptors for neuropeptides, such as endorphins, insulin, and angiotensin, and makes the connection with the rest of the body to provide the physiological basis for the emotions.

Answer to Question 2

B
In the home, accidental poisoning is a greater risk for the toddler, preschooler, and young school-age child, who often ingest household cleaning solutions, medications, or personal hygiene products.
