The term "pneumocephalus" refers to the condition in which air is present in the cranial cavity.

What happens in pneumocephalus?

  • Increased intracranial pressure causes tension pneumocephalus, a neurosurgical emergency that can cause headaches, seizures, loss of consciousness, and even death.
  • Clinically separating the two entities is difficult but essential.
  • Tension pneumocephalus following skull base surgery was found to be a rare phenomenon with just eleven cases described, according to a survey of the literature on PubMed/MEDLINE.
  • After treatment, the majority of patients experienced full symptom relief.
  • Following skull base surgery, tension pneumocephalus is a potential complication that clinicians should be aware of.
  • An understanding of imaging characteristics and a high level of suspicion are necessary for accurate diagnosis. Rapid management is essential to avoid potentially disastrous effects.

Answer: The drive theory of motivation.

Explanation:

The drive threory of motivation is based on the principle that organisms have certain psycological or physiological needs (in this case, hunger). When those needs are not satisfied, a tension in the organism is produced, and with it a drive to seek the satisfaction of that need.

Because the substance the rat recieves is nonnutritive (it doesn't reduce the rat's hunger), we can clearly see that the rat isn't performing the response because of this drive, seeking for the satisfaction of its hunger, but is motivated by another feeling. Therefore, this observation is problematic for the drive theory of motivation.

How Do Day and Night At Uranus's equator change as Uranus revolves around the sun?
daser333 [38]
Only some of the equator gets to experience day and night. When Uranus revolves around the Sun, one part gets light and day while the other gets night and darkness. So it changes because one time you can be looking and its day. Then you will look again and it will be night since Uranus moved around the Sun.
