Answer to Question 1

3
Rationale:
1. Young athletes should avoid sports for anywhere from 7 days to the entire season after a concussion to avoid getting a second concussion.
2. Multiple concussions can have a significantly longer recovery time.
3. Several symptoms can occur as postconcussive syndrome for up to 6 months after a concussion, such as headache, personality changes, poor memory, and vertigo (dizziness).
4. Concussions happen most of the time without any evidence of a skull fracture.

Answer to Question 2

T
Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 requires that hospitals or other institutions that receive funding from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services use a variety of communication techniques and resources with their deaf patients. This includes providing certified interpreters who are proficient in sign language.
