Answer:

C. right side of the head and neck and right upper arm

Explanation:

The arch of aorta is a continuation of ascending aorta and terminates at the intervertebral disc of fourth and fifth thoracic vertebrae. The superior part of the arch of aorta branches off into three major arteries. The first branch of arch of aorta is the largest branch and is known as the brachiocephalic trunk.

The brachiocephalic trunk divides and forms the subclavian artery and right common carotid artery. Right common carotid artery supplied blood to the right side of the head and neck while the right subclavian artery delivers blood to the right upper limb.

Hence, any blood clot in the first branch of arch of aorta, that is the brachiocephalic trunk would affect the blood supply to the right side of the head and neck and right upper arm.

Simora [160]

The answer is; warming of ocean water in the east of the Pacific Ocean close to the western coasts of South America.

The warming of the oceanic waters causes a current that pushes the warm waters eastwards of the Pacific Ocean at the equator.  This counters and overpowers the prevailing trade winds that blow westwards. The currents bring in storms on the West coast of South America as the currents exchange heat with the atmosphere .
