Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
Ventilation can be evaluated by observing visible chest rise and fall of the victim's chest during mouth-to-mouth resuscitation.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
When performing CPR alone, the lay rescuer must remember to give only 30 compressions for adults, children, and infants until an automatic external defibrillator arrives.
