Answer to Question 1

To most people an ocean wave in deep water appears to be a massive moving objecta ridge
of water traveling across the sea surface. An ocean wave is one of several kinds of waves, all
of which are disturbances caused by the movement of energy from a source through some
medium (solid, liquid, or gas). As the energy of the disturbance travels, the medium through
which it passes moves in specific ways. Sometimes this movement is visible to us as crests or
ridges in the medium. The traveling crests produce the appearance of movement we see in a
wave. In an ocean wave, a ribbon of energy is moving at the speed of the wave, but water is
not. In a sense, the wave is an illusion

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.
