Answer to Question 1

D
Professional power is that which is conferred on members of a profession by one another and the
larger society to which they belong.

Answer to Question 2

D
Patient conditions are triaged according to their real or potential threats to a patient according to the ABCs (airway-breathing-circulation). Some conditions which would be top priority due to real or potential impact on airway and breathing are chest trauma, choking, and airway compromise. Conditions which impact circulation are cardiac arrest, shock, and hemorrhage. Conditions which are important but do not fall directly under the airway-breathing-circulation categories include hypoglycemia and child or elder abuse.

Every flu season is different, and even healthy people can get extremely sick from the flu, as well as spread it to others. The flu season can begin as early as October and last as late as May. Every person over six months of age should get an annual flu vaccine. The vaccine cannot cause you to get influenza, but in some seasons, may not be completely able to prevent you from acquiring influenza due to changes in causative viruses. The viruses in the flu shot are killed—there is no way they can give you the flu. Minor side effects include soreness, redness, or swelling where the shot was given. It is possible to develop a slight fever, and body aches, but these are simply signs that the body is responding to the vaccine and making itself ready to fight off the influenza virus should you come in contact with it.
