11. This isn't a time for _____ just because you don't know what to do.

Explanation

In this context, the phrase "This isn't a time for _____ just because you don't know what to do" suggests that the speaker is emphasizing the importance of taking action and not allowing oneself to be held back by uncertainty or indecision. "Procrastination" fits this description as it refers to the act of delaying or postponing tasks, which would be counterproductive in a situation where immediate action is required. "Lamentation" refers to expressing sorrow or regret, which does not align with the idea of taking action. "Inhibition" refers to a feeling of restraint or hesitation, which is the most suitable option in this case. "Deridation" means ridicule or mockery, which is not relevant to the given context.

Submit
12. The whereabouts to the fountain of youth is _____ for a good reason.

The word "esoteric" means something that is understood or known by only a few people who have special knowledge about it. In the context of the sentence, the phrase "for a good reason" suggests that the location of the fountain of youth is intentionally kept secret or hidden from the general public. This implies that the knowledge of its whereabouts is limited to a select few, making the word "esoteric" the most suitable choice.
