Answer to Question 1

FALSE

Answer to Question 2

 Minimal brain dysfunction: Damage to the brain itself that causes antisocial behavior injurious to the individual's lifestyle and social adjustment.
 It has been suggested that children who manifest behavioral disturbances may have neurological deficits, such as damage to the hemispheres of the brain; this is sometimes referred to as minimal brain dysfunction (MBD).
 Impairment in brain functioning may be present at birth, produced by factors such as low birthweight, brain injury during pregnancy, birth complications, and inherited abnormalities.
 Brain injuries can also occur later in life as a result of brutal beatings or sexual abuse by a parent and can actually cause adverse physical changes in the brain, and these deformities can lead to depression, anxiety, and other serious emotional conditions.
 Children who suffer from measurable neurological deficits at birth also may experience a number of antisocial traits throughout their life course.
 Research has even linked this type of deficit to becoming a habitual liar. Later they are more likely to become criminals as adults.
 Clinical analysis of convicted murderers has found that a significant number had suffered head injuries as children that resulted in neurological impairment.
