Answer to Question 1

A
Anxiety, a subjective response that occurs when a person experiences a real or perceived threat to well-being, is closely related to stress. Anxiety can be viewed as either an activator or a response to stress; it occurs on a continuum ranging from mild apprehension to panic. Some anxiety is useful as a motivator for adaptation, but extreme anxiety levels impair a person's ability to think or to function.

Answer to Question 2

B
An acute state of disorganization or crisis occurs when a person's stressors exceed her or his coping ability. The person in a crisis state is unable to function because of extreme anxiety; this state is time-limited and requires immediate intervention to be resolved. While a crisis is unique to each individual, some common characteristics include loss, a precipitating event that is experienced as sudden and overwhelming, impaired communication, and the need for intervention because usual coping skills are inadequate for resolution. While a crisis can be a negative experience, it can also present an opportunity for growth and learning.

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.
