Instructions by American Red Cross.

1. Kneel beside the child or baby.

2. Push hard, push fast.

-For children, place the heel of one hand on the center of the chest, then place the heel of the other hand on top of the first hand, and lace your fingers together. Deliver 30 quick compressions that are each about 2 inches deep.

-For infants, use 2 fingers to deliver 30 quick compressions that are each about 1.5 inches deep.

3. Give 2 rescue breaths. Deliver 2 rescue breaths if the child or infant isn't breathing. With the head tilted back slightly and the chin lifted, pinch the child's nose shut, make a complete seal by placing your mouth over the child's mouth and breathe into the child's mouth twice.

4 . Keep going. Continue the these baby or child CPR steps until you see obvious signs of life, like breathing, or until an AED is ready to use, another trained responder or EMS professional is available to take over, you're too exhausted to continue, or the scene becomes unsafe.

seraphim [82]

Answer:

<h3>D) Underclass</h3>

Explanation:

Underclass represent a section of the population who inhabits the lowest position in the class system of social order. They are below the working class as they find it hard to find stable jobs with steady income.

Compared to the working class, the underclass section of the population are exploited less. They are usually perceived to be less productive because of lack of education and skills. Thus, they are exploited less by the higher classes because of their incapacity to be productive. Instead, the working class, though higher than the underclass in the class ladder, is being exploited more because of their productivity.

In case of Tom, who belongs to the underclass section, despite having some earnings, he depends on government programs to make ends meet because his chances of being recruited into a stable job is very minimal.
