Answer:
The correct answer is herd immunity
Explanation:
Herd immunity is a type of immunity provided by the major population which is vaccinated or immune against an infectious to some individual of their community which is not immune to that infection.
Herd immunity is generated only when most of the population is immune to that particular disease. For example, in measles, 90-95% of a population should be vaccinated against measles to provide herd immunity to the un-immune individuals. So the correct answer is herd immunity.

The health professional who takes care of the case of the boy with fragile X syndrome should know that it is common for patients with this syndrome to have mitral valve prolapse.
Explanation:
Fragile X syndrome (FXS or SXF) is a genetic and hereditary condition, responsible for a large number of cases of mental deficiency and behavioral disorders, affecting one in 2,000 boys and one in 4,000 women. The syndrome is caused by mutations in the FRM1 gene present in a flaw called the fragile site located at the end of the long arm of the X chromosome.
For many carriers of the mutation, fragile X syndrome is asymptomatic. However, it is common for individuals with this syndrome to present behavioral disorders and intellectual impairment that can be present in different degrees, from mild learning or speech difficulties.
Some physical characteristics may suggest the presence of the syndrome from birth. This is the case of macrocephaly and low muscle tone. There are other subtle signs of the syndrome that become more evident with growth. They are: elongated face, large flapping ears, prominent jaw, very high and arched roof of the mouth, strabismus and myopia, joint hyperextension, hollow chest, mitral valve prolapse, recurrent otitis and, in 20% of cases, convulsions.

Answer:
1. 45.9 to 62 kg.
2. 82.72 %
Explanation:
1. We have to find out Mr. Swanson's body weight by calculating his body mass index.
From body mass index or BMI = weight of the person in kg / height in meter
BMI = 41.36/ 1.5748
= 41.36 /2.47999504
= 16.67
The normal range of BMI is 18.5 to 24.9. So, Ms. Swanson's desirable body weight would be 45.9 to 62 kgs.
2. Mr. Swanson's percent ideal body weight:
= 
Now calculating the ideal body = 45.5 kg + 2.3 kg for each inch above 5 feet
Ideal body weight (IBW) = 45.5 + 2.3 x 2
= 50 kg
Now calculating the percentage ideal body weight
= 
= 0.8272 x 100
= 82.72 %
The normal range of percentage ideal body weight lies between 90 - 100 percent. Thus, the percentage ideal body weight of Mr. Swanson is low.
3. Some of the physical signs that can be seen in the patient when the patient is dehydrated are :
i). Dry skin
ii). weight loss
iii). thirsty
iv). pale skin color
