Answer to Question 1

d

Answer to Question 2

A latent trait is a personal attribute or characteristic that controls a person's inclination or propensity to commit crimes. It is a stable feature, characteristic, property, or condition, present at birth or soon after, that makes some people prone to commit crimes over the life course. A latent trait may be either present at birth or established early in life, and it can remain stable over time. Suspected latent traits include defective intelligence, damaged or impulsive personality, genetic abnormalities, the physicalchemical functioning of the brain, and environmental influences on brain function, such as drugs, chemicals, and injuries.

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.
