b. if the person cannot move the joint or walk
c. if there is no visible swelling
d. if swelling reduces after ice

Explanation:

First Question:

• Option a: Calling emergency services is not about avoiding legal responsibility; it's for help, so a is wrong.
• Option b: In a life - threatening situation, the key is to get professional medical help quickly as emergency services provide trained medical responders, so b is correct.
• Option c: Emergency services don't primarily ensure the person stays calm; their main role is medical assistance, so c is wrong.
• Option d: Preventing further injury is part of first aid, but the main reason to call emergency services is to get professional help, so d is not the most important reason.

• Option a: A sprain during sports doesn't necessarily need emergency services; minor sprains can be treated at home, so a is wrong.
• Option b: If a person with a sprain can't move the joint or walk, it may indicate a more serious injury (like a fracture or severe sprain) that needs professional evaluation, so b is correct.
• Option c: No visible swelling doesn't mean emergency services are needed; in fact, swelling is a common sprain symptom, so c is wrong.
• Option d: If swelling reduces after ice, it's a sign of improvement, not a reason to call emergency services, so d is wrong.
