Answer to Question 1

C
The prompt initiation of effective chest compressions is a fundamental aspect of cardiac arrest resuscitation. CPR improves the victim's chance of survival by providing heart and
brain circulation. Rescuers should perform chest compressions for all victims in cardiac arrest, regardless of rescuer skill level, victim characteristics, or available resources.
Rescuers should focus on delivering high-quality CPR providing chest compressions of adequate rate (at least 100 compressions per minute).

Answer to Question 2

C
Female circumcision, or genital mutilation, is considered atypical behavior and is illegal in the United States. It is normal for some individuals to feel comfortable displaying affection in public in a variety of different ways. Some individuals, depending on their cultural and religious beliefs, prefer to maintain complete privacy related to sexuality. Transgender surgery is a natural procedure to assist a patient to transform his or her body into the sexual gender he or she most identifies with, if the patient requests the procedure.
