Answer:

He burnt 37% of his body.

Explanation:

We can determine the percentage of body burn by using the rule of nines. This rule says that the head and neck, arms and hands, chest, stomach, upper back, and lastly, lower back equals 9% of the body each. The perineal area is 1% of the body surface, and the legs are 18% of the totality of the body.

Marion burnt his legs (18%), chest (9%), his arms (9%), and his perineal area (1%). If we add all up, the total is 37%.

Which group of actions fulfills the three core public health functions in their proper order?
MArishka [77]

A. Counting the number of kindergarten students who are fully immunized, encouraging the school officials to exclude children who are not fully immunized, and offering immunization clinics at the school.

The three essential components of public health are assurance, policy formation, and assessment. Data is collected during assessment, policies are developed based on the assessment, and services are translated into existing policies during assurance.

Assessment would involve counting how many kindergarten students are completely vaccinated, policy creation would involve pressuring school administrators to remove pupils who are not fully immunized, and assurance would involve holding vaccination clinics on-site.

Assessment entails locating a source of pollution in the area, assurance entails informing citizens about safety measures to be taken when pollution levels surpass legal limits, and policy creation entails requesting that lawmakers impose penalties on the polluter as a result of their actions.
