Answer:

(MI) Myocardial Infarction

Explanation:

Myocardial infarction (MI, heart attack) is produced when the velocity of blood flow decreases in the heart, which can lead to injury of the heart muscle. The symptoms of a heart attack include pressure, tightness or pain in the chest, shortness of breath, anxiety, nausea and vomiting.  MI can be prevented by healthy life habits such as plenty of sleep, healthy food habits, and regular exercise. A heart attack should be treated immediately by angioplasty, which is a medical procedure to unblock the arteries that transport blood to the heart.

Create an acronym/mnemonic device (memory aids) that would help you remember the order in which sound
Andrew [12]

A typical memory aid that helps in remembering the order in which sound travels from the peripheral to the central components of the auditory pathway would be E.C.O.L.I.M.A.

Sound (high or low-frequency sounds) at first gets to the hair cells of the Ear receptors (E) in Cochlea and cranial nerve number 8 (CN VII), then it gets to the Cochlear nuclei (C) which are cells dedicated to these high or low-frequency sounds.

At the Superior Olivary nucleus (O) sound is localized before it gets to the midbrain - Lateral lemniscus (L) and Inferior colliculus (I). The inferior colliculus receives auditory nerve fibers from ipsilateral superior olivary nuclei through the lateral lemniscus.

Sounds then get to the thalamus at the Medial geniculate body (M) which receives nerve fibers from the inferior colliculus; eventually sounds then get to the auditory cortex.

In summary, ECOLIMA is an easily understandable mnemonic device to help remember how sound waves move from the external ears to the auditory nerves and cortex.
