Answer to Question 1

B

Answer to Question 2

 Irrelevant sexualization uses women's bodies in sexual ways in an attempt to attract attention or to use a woman's or man's sexuality to sell products, such as is common with Abercrombie & Fitch advertising campaigns.
 Infantilization presents women as childish, coy, silly, passive, or vulnerable. This is in contrast to men who are commonly portrayed as strong, confident, assertive, and serious.
 Domestication defines women in relationship to their husbands, boyfriends, or the man to whom they are attracted. Even if the female TV character works outside of the home environment, she is typically shown interacting in her home relationships and not in her work environment.
 Distortion of female body image is seen in the increasingly thinner and thinner females portrayed in prime-time television, such as the lead actresses in the ABC hit series, Desperate Housewives.
 Victimization portrays women as victims of violent acts or as victims of female and male brutality.

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.
