The order in which a person (conscious) is placed on a backboard due to a suspected injury to the head, neck, or spine in the water is as follows:-

1. Rescuer 1 performs manual in-line stabilization until another rescuer arrives. Rescuer 2 enters the water, submerges the backboard and positions it under the victim in a manner that it extends slightly beyond the victim’s head.

2. Rescuer 2 elevates the backboard into place, after which both rescuers follow either the head splint technique or the head and chin support accordingly.

3. The rescuer who is not standing near the victim’s head places the victim on the backboard. The victim should be secured with a minimum of three straps-across the victim’s chest, hips and thighs.

4. After all the straps have been properly secured, the lifeguard secures the victim’s head to the backboard using a head immobilizer and a strap across the victim’s forehead.

Someone trying to quit smoking may experience: irritability and depression. calmness and no appetite. relief and desire to sleep
Alina [70]
They may experience irritability and depression because when a person constantly smokes, his/her brain begins to rely on the chemicals it gets from the person smoking, which results in the brain "getting lazy" and not producing the chemicals anymore. If the person were to suddenly quit, the brain would lack in the chemicals it had stopped producing, making the person feel constantly annoyed and depressed because of the chemical imbalance.

Dominik [7]
They all coincide with each other although they are each individually important exercise and your diet are connected,you can't have too much food and run a marathon without cramping. Too much stress will have an effect on the consistency of your diet and your diet on your exercise, now heredity is a whole other realm, you cannot control that or change it. But if you are so worried about your heredity then you should seek counseling with a mentor or a paid counselor because that will affect all of your overall health.
