Answer to Question 1

Ans: D
Sleep quality is influenced by drugs. Drugs that decrease sleep include diuretics, steroids, and antidepressants. Ambien and chloral hydrate appear to influence the quality of sleep least and promote normal sleep.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: D
Despite individual variations, growing children, especially adolescents who are in a tremendous growth period, require from 10 to 14 hours of sleep per night. This is in comparison with the accepted standard for adults, which is 8 hours. Older adults often require less sleep.
