Answer:

(B) Try to swim over to the tree.

Explanation:

Flash flood is defined as A flood in a brief period of time triggered by heavy or extreme rainfall, Flash flooding occurs within 6 hours of the rain event. 

It is advisable to swim over to the tree as this would give you If a higher ground which is very neccesary. With the aid of the tree, you can hold tight to it also , so that the current of the flash flood wont carry or drown you.

Answer:

b. Try to swim over to the tree.

Explanation:

In this situation, the safest thing to do is try to swim up to the tree and lean on it. This will prevent you from being carried away by the current or sinking. Relaxing your body and letting the current take you can be very dangerous because it can make you drown, you shouldn't try to set your feet on the ground either, because you don't know how deep it is, there may be something on the ground that hurts you and the current can bring you down. Lastly, you should also not dive under the tree, as you may get stuck, be carried away by the current and drown.

Evaluate the impact of risky behaviour on your personal expectations in relation to the career you want to follow... like i want
Lisa [10]

Answer and Explanation:

Risky behavior defines that behavior which is riskier to the life of people

As if you want to choose a career in a Nurse or a Doctor you want to judge the risk.

As a doctor,  if the doctor gives the high dosage to the patient to recover from illness but even less dosage also works still the doctor gives which affect the kidney, liver of the patient, etc

Well,  it is a great career as a doctor you can help many poor people by giving them free medical treatment in return you get the blessings which surely worked.

But there are many hospitals who are taking extraordinary charges even they do transplants, surgeries where there is no need just to earn the money but this is not acceptable and in one day everyone knows about it what they are doing

Therefore do not play with the life of the people as it is precious for them.
