Difficult reading questions (everyone got these incorrect)
10 (p. 407) - fact - a (The last sentence says, “There is noted brain activity...in the same regions targeted by...SSRIs.”)
12 - vocabulary - a (“invoked” means something like “called upon”, which in this case means it can be brought into use)
18 (p. 414) - negative fact - b (The paragraph doesn’t say it creates multiple signals.)
19 - reference - The correct answer should be “the core” or perhaps “a mirrored layer”. The “its” later in the same paragraph (“its destination”) refers to the digital signal.)

Answers start on p. 578.
