Question

select the choice that best completes the following statement. back injuries: a) can affect anyone at any time b) typically only occur when lifting objects c) are usually temporary d) can be prevented by wearing proper personal protective equipment

Explanation:

Back injuries can occur due to various reasons like poor posture, accidents, underlying medical conditions etc. So they can affect anyone at any time. Lifting objects is just one of the causes (so b is wrong). Many back - injuries can be chronic (so c is wrong). While proper body mechanics and some equipment can help, personal protective equipment (in the traditional sense like hard hats, safety goggles etc. for back - injury prevention) is not the main preventive measure (so d is wrong).

Answer:

A. Can affect anyone at any time
