Accepted Answer

### Question 1
# Brief Explanations:
A laceration is a cut from a sharp object like a razor blade. An abrasion is a scrape, a puncture is a hole from a pointed object, and an avulsion is a tearing away. So the correct answer is b.
# Answer:
b. a laceration.

### Question 2
# Brief Explanations:
The first link in the chain of survival is to call for help (phone 911). CPR and defibrillation come after, and going to the hospital is not the first step. So the correct answer is c.
# Answer:
c. phone 911.

### Question 3
# Brief Explanations:
Applying pressure to the bleeding nostril is correct for a nosebleed. Tilting head back is wrong (can cause blood to go down throat), seeking help after 15 minutes is for if pressure doesn't work, and breathing through nose is not advised. So the correct answer is a.
# Answer:
a. Apply pressure to the bleeding nostril.

### Question 4
# Brief Explanations:
Universal precautions include wearing protective gloves to prevent infection. The other options are not part of universal precautions. So the correct answer is a.
# Answer:

# Answer:
d. have the victim lie down.

### Question 6
# Brief Explanations:
Adult and infant CPR have the same head positioning for rescue breathing. Force, breath length, and time between breaths differ. So the correct answer is b.
# Answer:
b. the positioning of the head before beginning rescue breathing.

### Question 7
# Brief Explanations:
If someone faints, lay them down and elevate legs to increase blood flow to brain. CPR is for cardiac arrest, splashing water is not standard, and sitting up with head between knees is for someone who feels faint (not after fainting). So the correct answer is c.
# Answer:
c. lay the person down and elevate the legs.

### Question 8
# Brief Explanations:
If poison gets in the eye, flushing with water and calling 911 is correct. The other options are wrong (poison on skin should be flushed, most poisonings need professional help, inducing vomiting is not always safe). So the correct answer is d.
# Answer:
d. If poison gets in your eye, flush the eye with water and call 911.

### Question 9
# Brief Explanations:
Restlessness, pale/cool/moist skin, rapid breathing/pulse are symptoms of shock. Choking has different symptoms, concussion is head injury related, unconsciousness is a state. So the correct answer is b.
# Answer:
b. shock.
