Explain why blood oozes from a venous wound rather than spurting as it does from an arterial wound

1 answer:

8 0

The venous system is low pressure using either gravity from the upper body or muscle action from the lower body (when we sit/stand). It does have a little pressure naturally. So a cut oozes blood unless you hit an artery. That is high pressure blood carrying oxygen to tissues.

What is dissociative amnesia and its causes

Vlad [161]

Answer:

Dissociative amnesia is a type of dissociative disorder that involves inability to recall important personal information that would not typically be lost with ordinary forgetting. It is usually caused by trauma or stress. Diagnosis is based on history after ruling out other causes of amnesia.

Dissociative amnesia has been linked to overwhelming stress, which may be caused by traumatic events such as war, abuse, accidents, or disasters. The person may have suffered the trauma or just witnessed it.
