Answer to Question 1

Changes in communication technologies and the trend toward an ever more global marketplace have played a large role in many of these changes. With respect to communication technologies, virtually everyone is connected today and the speed with which information can be exchanged has increased tremendously. Changes in computer technology have also made for easier data collection and data analysis. Markets today have few, if any, geographic boundaries. Companies that conduct business in foreign countries must understand the nature of those particular markets and judge whether they require customized marketing strategies. The internationalizatio n of research places greater demands on marketing researchers and heightens the need for research tools that allow us to cross-validate research results, which means that the empirical findings from one culture also exist and behave similarly in another culture.

Answer to Question 2

False

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.
