o\

Explanation:

• Question 1: The "Prevent and Prepare" step involves taking proactive measures before an emergency occurs. Keeping a first - aid kit at home and in the car is a preventive and preparatory action.
• Question 2: Unresponsiveness is a serious condition that always requires calling emergency services as it could indicate a life - threatening situation such as cardiac arrest or severe head injury. Minor skin breaks, some broken bones, and short - term vomiting/diarrhea may not always be life - threatening and may not require immediate EMS call.
• Question 3: A "reasonable and prudent" first - aider is expected to call EMS/9 - 1 - 1 if necessary. Moving the person indoors may not always be safe, asking for medical history may not be the first priority in an emergency, and giving care against the person's wishes may be illegal in some cases.

Answer:

• Question 1: d) You never know when an emergency might happen, so you keep a first aid kit in your home and car
• Question 2: c) Unresponsiveness
• Question 3: c) Call EMS/9-1-1 if necessary
