select the correct answer.
james suffers a heart attack. his heartbeat and breathing have stopped completely. how would you help him?
a. call 911 and wait for medics to arrive.

b. perform the heimlich maneuver

c. perform cpr

Explanation:

When a person's heartbeat and breathing stop (cardiac arrest), CPR (Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation) is the appropriate immediate action to restore circulation and breathing. Calling 911 alone (option A) without providing immediate life - saving measures is not enough. The Heimlich maneuver (option B) is for choking, not cardiac arrest. So the correct action is to perform CPR.

Answer:

C. Perform CPR
