Questions and Answers

1.

Life-threatening bloodborne virus that depresses the cells of the immune system.
- A.
  
  Hepatitis
- B.
  
  First degree burn
- C.
  
  First Aid
- D.
  
  AIDS
- E.
  
  CPR
Correct Answer
D. AIDS

Explanation
AIDS is a life-threatening bloodborne virus that weakens the immune system by attacking and suppressing immune cells. This condition is caused by the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), which can be transmitted through unprotected sexual intercourse, sharing needles, or from mother to child during childbirth or breastfeeding. AIDS is characterized by a significant decrease in the body's ability to fight off infections and diseases, making individuals more susceptible to various illnesses. Treatment for AIDS involves antiretroviral therapy (ART) to control the HIV infection and manage symptoms, but there is currently no cure for the disease.

Severe and sometimes fatal reaction to an antigen (bee Sting).
- A.
  
  Anaphylactic shock
- B.
  
  CPR
- C.
  
  Second degree burn
- D.
  
  OSHA
- E.
  
  Safety
Correct Answer
A. AnapHylactic shock

Explanation
Anaphylactic shock is a severe and potentially life-threatening allergic reaction to an antigen, such as a bee sting. It occurs when the immune system overreacts to the allergen, releasing a flood of chemicals that can cause a sudden drop in blood pressure, difficulty breathing, and other symptoms. Prompt medical intervention is necessary to treat anaphylactic shock, typically with epinephrine and other medications.

Procedure for resotring normal breathing after cardiac arrest.
- A.
  
  AIDS
- B.
  
  OSHA
- C.
  
  MSDS
- D.
  
  CPR
- E.
  
  FAB
Correct Answer
D. CPR

Explanation
CPR stands for Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation, which is a procedure used to restore normal breathing and circulation in a person who has experienced cardiac arrest. It involves a combination of chest compressions and rescue breaths to manually pump blood and oxygen to vital organs. CPR is a crucial emergency response technique that can significantly increase the chances of survival for someone in cardiac arrest until advanced medical help arrives.

5.

Discharge of electricity through the human body.
- A.
  
  Arc burn
- B.
  
  Electric shock
- C.
  
  Anaphylactic shock
- D.
  
  Sticker shock
- E.
  
  CPR
Correct Answer
B. Electric shock

Explanation
Electric shock refers to the physiological reaction that occurs when electric current passes through the human body. It can result in various symptoms, including muscle contractions, pain, burns, and even cardiac arrest. Electric shocks can occur due to direct contact with live wires or electrical equipment, faulty wiring, or lightning strikes. The severity of the shock depends on factors such as the voltage, duration of exposure, and the path the current takes through the body. Prompt medical attention is crucial in cases of electric shock to prevent further complications and potential long-term damage.

6.

Immediate temporary care given to a victim of an accident or sudden illness.
- A.
  
  CPR
- B.
  
  First Aid
- C.
  
  AED
- D.
  
  Electric shock
- E.
  
  Epi-pen
Correct Answer
B. First Aid

Explanation
First Aid is the immediate temporary care given to a victim of an accident or sudden illness. It involves providing initial medical assistance to stabilize the person's condition and prevent further harm until professional medical help arrives. First Aid can include actions such as performing CPR (Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation), applying bandages or dressings, administering medication, and providing basic life support. It is essential in providing immediate help and increasing the chances of survival for the victim.

7.

Burn affecting only the outer-layer of skin.
- A.
  
  First degree burn
- B.
  
  Second degree burn
- C.
  
  Third degree burn
- D.
  
  Arc burn
- E.
  
  Flash burn
Correct Answer
A. First degree burn

Explanation
A first-degree burn refers to a burn that only affects the outer layer of the skin. This type of burn is characterized by redness, pain, and mild swelling. It is the mildest form of burn and usually heals within a few days without leaving any scars. The fact that it only affects the outer layer of the skin distinguishes it from second and third-degree burns, which penetrate deeper layers of the skin. Arc burn and flash burn are not specific types of burns, so they are not the correct answer.

Rate this question:
8.

Burn penetrating beneath the superficial skin layers
- A.
  
  First degree burn
- B.
  
  Second degree burn
- C.
  
  Third degree burn
- D.
  
  Arc burn
- E.
  
  Flash burn
Correct Answer
B. Second degree burn

Explanation
A second-degree burn is a burn that affects both the superficial layers of the skin (epidermis) and the underlying layers (dermis). This type of burn is characterized by blistering, redness, swelling, and intense pain. It is more severe than a first-degree burn, which only affects the superficial layers of the skin. A second-degree burn may result from exposure to hot liquids, flames, chemicals, or prolonged sun exposure. Immediate treatment, such as cooling the burn with cold water and applying a sterile dressing, is necessary to prevent infection and promote healing.

9.

Burn that destoys all layers of skin and underlying tissue.
- A.
  
  First degree burn
- B.
  
  Second degree burn
- C.
  
  Third degree burn
- D.
  
  Arc burn
- E.
  
  Flash burn
Correct Answer
C. Third degree burn

Explanation
A third-degree burn is a type of burn that destroys all layers of the skin and underlying tissue. Unlike first and second-degree burns, which only affect the outer layers of the skin, a third-degree burn penetrates through the entire thickness of the skin and can even damage muscles, tendons, and bones. This type of burn is usually characterized by a dry, leathery, and charred appearance, and it often requires immediate medical attention and specialized treatment such as skin grafting. Third-degree burns are considered the most severe and can result from prolonged exposure to high heat, flames, chemicals, or electrical currents.

Infectious disease marked by inflammation of the liver
- A.
  
  AIDS
- B.
  
  Hepatitis
- C.
  
  Anaphylactic shock
- D.
  
  Fume fever
- E.
  
  Diabetes
Correct Answer
B. Hepatitis

Explanation
Hepatitis is an infectious disease characterized by inflammation of the liver. It can be caused by various factors such as viruses, alcohol, drugs, and autoimmune disorders. Symptoms include fatigue, jaundice, abdominal pain, and loss of appetite. Hepatitis can be acute or chronic, and it can lead to serious complications if left untreated. The correct answer is Hepatitis because it is the only option that specifically refers to a disease affecting the liver.

Freedom from danger, risk, or injury.
- A.
  
  Observant
- B.
  
  Safety
- C.
  
  Caution
- D.
  
  Careful
- E.
  
  Dangerous
Correct Answer
B. Safety

Explanation
Safety refers to the state of being free from danger, risk, or injury. It is the condition of being protected from harm or any potential threats. In this context, safety is the most appropriate term as it directly relates to the given definition. Observant, caution, careful, and dangerous are not synonymous with the concept of being free from danger or risk.

Rate this question:
12.

Federal legislation designed to ensure safe and healthful working conditions for employees.
- A.
  
  MSDS
- B.
  
  NIOSH
- C.
  
  IRS
- D.
  
  ABC
- E.
  
  OSHA
Correct Answer
E. OSHA

Explanation
OSHA stands for Occupational Safety and Health Administration. It is a federal agency responsible for enforcing federal laws and regulations related to workplace safety and health. OSHA's main goal is to ensure safe and healthful working conditions for employees by setting and enforcing standards, providing training, outreach, education, and assistance to employers and workers. Therefore, OSHA is the correct answer as it aligns with the given description of federal legislation designed to ensure safe and healthful working conditions for employees.
