Answer:
Ascertain that the needle is not in a blood vessel
Explanation:
In subcutaneous administration, a small amount of liquid medicine is injected into the subcutaneous tissue below the patient's skin. This type of injection is indicated for the administration of anticoagulants, hypoglycemic agents and vaccines (anti-rabies and anti-measles). The drug is slowly absorbed into the nearby capillaries, giving prolonged effect of the drug. Intramuscular injections deposit the medication deep into the muscle tissue, which is highly vascularized and can absorb rapidly. This route of administration provides rapid systemic action and absorption of relatively large doses.
Regardless of whether the injection is subcutaneous or intramuscular, one should carefully pull the plunger to make sure that the needle is not in a blood vessel and does not cause bleeding.

Answer:
b. ex post facto or quasi-experimental.
Explanation:
An ex post facto search is done when a researcher cannot manipulate one of the variables such as sexual behavior or smoking (as described in the question), ie this type of research is done when it is not possible to manipulate the independent variables as they already arrive ready for research. Ex-post fact research deals with variables that are unmanipulated in nature. Quasi-experimental research can also be done for this same situation.
