Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) is the procedure that is being performed on Tommy, while he is awake.

What is Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation?

Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) is a non-invasive method for mood control. It does not require the patient to be sedated and is usually performed on completely conscious patients.

  • In this procedure, the nerve cells are stimulated by magnetic pulses by placing electromagnetic coils against the scalp of the patient. The patient is then stimulated repetitively which is why it is known as repetitive TMS.
  • Repetitive TMS can be targeted to specific sites of the brain in contrast to other brain stimulation therapies which are more generalized. Magnetic pulse activates the regions of the brain that show decreased activity during conditions like depression.

Tommy sings during the procedure because the region of the brain responsible for memory and singing is stimulated by this procedure.

During a flood, a stream overflows its banks, and water covers the adjacent ____.
nata0808 [166]

Answer:

Flood Plain

Explanation:

The amount of water that circulates through a river, the flow, varies in time and space. These variations define the hydrological regime of a river. Temporary variations occur during or just after episodes of rains or thaws. Much of the water that falls in the catchment basin circulates underground, or feeds underground aquifers and takes much longer to feed the river flow and can reach it days, weeks or months after the rain generated by the runoff. The runoff that goes to the river is what increases its flow. In extreme cases, flooding can occur when the water supply is greater than the river's ability to evacuate it, overflowing and covering nearby flat areas or floodplain. In this distribution between the runoff water (or stream) that goes directly to the channel and water that infiltrates, feeds the aquifers and maintains the flow in the river in times without precipitation depends largely on the geomorphological integrity of the entire river system .

In natural dynamics, the river systems have their own space that has been modeled by the floodwaters and is made up of the channel, the banks and the plain or flood plain. Its dimensions have been defined by the main flood events that this river has attended. Floodplains are wide and flat areas built by the river in its floodwaters. They are flooded frequently and are covered by sediments and nutrients that fertilize the soil act as natural reservoirs, reducing the speed of the downstream current. They store floodwater and rainfall in aquifers (underground area).

Pumping of groundwater in California most effectively: Select one:
maria [59]

Answer:

A

Explanation:

Ans- A, causes sediments in aquifers that are emptied to compact and the ground above it to sink.

This is one of the major problems for California nowadays. Due to excessive groundwater pumping to satisfy the demand of huge population the aquifers are drying, hence compacting and for that the land above sinks.

How do we get heat on Earth? Does thermal energy travel directly from the sun?
ExtremeBDS [4]
We get heat on earth from the sun. Energy from the sun is transferred through space and through earths atmosphere to the earths surface. And since this warms the earth surface it creates heat.
