Question

why should you take the victim of a black widow spider bite to a medical facility?
medical professionals will want to record the bite for other health officials and statistics.
medical professionals will want the victim to identify the type of spider so they can give the best available care.
medical professionals will clean the wound and, in some cases, administer an antivenin.
black widow spider bites will cause death to over 90 percent of the healthy adults they bite.

Explanation:

• Option 1: Recording for stats isn't the main reason for medical care.
• Option 2: Medical pros usually identify the spider (via bite signs/symptoms) rather than relying on the victim's ID.
• Option 3: Black widow bites need wound care and sometimes antivenin, which medical facilities provide.
• Option 4: The mortality rate for healthy adults from black widow bites is much lower than 90%.

Answer:

C. Medical professionals will clean the wound and, in some cases, administer an antivenin.
