the correct answer is d. Give 2 ventilations and begin CPR.

Explanation:

The chest should fall before the next ventilation is given. If unconscious but breathing, place in a recovery position. If unconscious and no breathing but there is a pulse, continue giving ventilations. If unconscious and no breathing or pulse, begin CPR.

Cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) consists of the use of chest compressions and artificial ventilation to maintain circulatory flow and oxygenation during cardiac arrest.
