Correct answer is:
  • (B)  Perform chest compressions only
Explanation:
According to Mayo Clinic, “It's far better to do something than to do nothing at all if you're fearful that your knowledge or abilities aren't 100 percent complete. If you're not trained in CPR, then provide hands-only CPR. That means uninterrupted chest compressions of about 100 a minute until paramedics arrive. You don't need to try rescue breathing.”
