Answer:

The correct answer is C.

Explanation:

Any guardianship is established by court. The court grants the guardian the authority to make decisions in the name of the person in their care ( the ward). The relationship is fiduciary, meaning that the guardian is obliged to act in the best interest of the ward.

Once a person is assigned a guardian, their rights become restricted. The guardian decides for the person in the matters of health, finances, property, education, social activities, writing a will or getting married.

A guardian must submit written reports to the court justifying his decisions.

What statement best describes local winds
inna [77]

Local winds are those winds which are preferred to travel small distances.

<u>Explanation: </u>

The winds which flows in a particular area and the direction of those winds are predicted from before. Local winds like the sea breeze which flows from the sea to land keeping the temperature of the coastal areas little mild. Also, the land breezes which flows from the land to the sea at night. These local winds are quite dissimilar to the global winds. These winds don't change the total weather of a place but they just vary the temperature in few degrees of that small particular area.

____ [38]

Answer:

C) Make a note to pursue sensitive issues later in the interview.

Explanation:

The caregiver need not pressure the individuals in order to get answers from him immediately. This would not allow the subject to think properly and answer the question. Also there would be no need to stop the lesson because the individual did not answer a question as this would hinder communication flow. It is therefore required that the caregiver write down the questions that may be sensitive to the subject and later ask these questions at a more convenient time for the subject when he must be more comfortable to answer these sensitive questions. Scenarios such as this are usually exemplified in highschool movies where the teacher would have to call the student to her office after the class or next day
