hi!i was the one who posted the question from a review, i have no idea who was the author of that question or from what book it was based.can you give us tips on how to answer such questions because it is quite confusing. gonna take nclex and some more exams in a couple of months (i am praying! and working on it ) as early as now, i am preparing for it. i am wondering how am i going to attack question since, my answer was A.direct answer to the question, i would've answered B if the quuestion was 'why was not IM or SC given?". still confused on how to answer. help us students! thanks and God bless!

The most correct answer is B but I would argue the physiology underlying even that answer because it soooo depends on the size of the burn and the degree of resuscitation.

The most correct response would be interrupted/diminished blood flow to SC/IM sites.

Thanks, that is what I was thinking - if it was 3rd degree burns over a majority of the body, versus second degree over a small area, it would make a big difference.

Thanks for taking the time!

However, electronic mail and synchronous communication sites such as Internet Relay Chat (IRC) and various forms of MUDs (Multi-User Dungeons or Dimensions)--sites which allow for "live" communication between users--are not protected under the Copyright Act. The Report says:
A transmission, in and of itself, is not a fixation. While a transmission may result in a fixation, a work is not fixed by virtue of the transmission alone. Therefore "live" transmissions via the NII [National Information Infrastructure] will not meet the fixation requirement, and will be unprotected under the Copyright Act, unless the work is being fixed at the same time as it is being transmitted.
Fair Use and Abuse
Infringement is infringement--the doctrine of fair use doesn't negate that; it is simply an "affirmative defense." But Section 107 of the Copyright Act plainly says:

[T]he fair use of a copyrighted work, including such use by reproduction in copies of phonorecords or by any other means specified by that section, for purposes such as criticism, comment, news reporting, teaching (including multiple copies for classroom use), scholarship, or research, is not an infringement of copyright. In determining whether the use made of a work in any particular case is a fair use the factors to be considered shall include -- (1) the purpose and character of the use, including whether such use is of a commercial nature or is for nonprofit educational purposes; (2) the nature of the copyrighted work; (3) the amount and substantiality of the portion used in relation to the copyrighted work as a whole; and (4) the effect of the use upon the potential market for or value of the copyrighted work
