Answer: Option C

Explanation:

Whenever there is any injury in any part of the body or there is any injury in the bones and there is a chance of the displacement of bone et cetera then  bones should be splinted in order to leave it on its place.

The bones should not be displaced or moved before reaching to the doctor. In this case the knee of the footballer is flexed in an upward position and so it should not be touched or moved further.

It must be supported by two wooden plates and then moved to the hospital for proper assistance.

When looking at nutrition labels you should do the following
xz_007 [3.2K]
I agree with the answer above and would like to add on to it. When looking at nutrition labels you should be looking at what ingredients was used to make the food, including the chemical compositions. For an example, some people are allergic to peanut butter, therefore it is their responsibility to check the label so that they know what company made it and the ingredients. Also remember to check the expiring date :D
