Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
One positive development is that teen use of cigarettes and smokeless tobacco has declined. The rate of current alcohol use among youths aged 12 to 17 was 13.6 in 2010, which was lower than the 2009 rate (14.7). Marijuana is almost the only licit or illicit drug showing significant 5-year increases.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
In approximately 65 to 90 of abusive head trauma cases, also known as shaken baby syndrome, the father or the mother's boyfriend is the perpetrator.

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.
