The sympathetic nervous system originates in the spinal cord and its main function is to activate the physiological changes that occur during the fight-or-flight response. This component of the autonomic nervous system utilises and activates the release of norepinephrine in the reaction.

Zinaida [17]
Prepare Before

Know your area’s risk from volcanic eruption.
Ask local emergency management for evacuation and shelter plans, and for potential means of protection from ash.
Learn about community warning systems by signing up for a free service called the Volcano Notification Service (VNS) that sends notifications about volcanic activity.
Get necessary supplies in advance, including non-perishable foods, cleaning supplies, and water for several days, in case you have to evacuate immediately, or if services are cut off. Keep in mind each person’s specific needs, including medication. Do not forget the needs of pets.
If you are able to, set aside items like soap, hand sanitizer that contains at least 60 percent alcohol, disinfecting wipes, and general household cleaning supplies that you can use to disinfect surfaces you touch regularly. After an explosive eruption, you may not have access to these supplies for days or even weeks.
Being prepared allows you to avoid unnecessary excursions and to address minor medical issues at school, alleviating the burden on urgent care centers and hospitals.
Remember that not everyone can afford to respond by stocking up on necessities. For those who can afford it, making essential purchases and slowly building up supplies in advance will allow for longer time periods between shopping trips. This helps to protect those who are unable to procure essentials in advance of the pandemic and must shop more frequently. In addition, consider avoiding WIC-labeled products so that those who rely on these products can access them.
Consult your doctor if you have existing respiratory difficulties.
Practice a communication and evacuation plan with everyone in the school
If you are advised to evacuate, find several ways to leave the area. Drive the evacuation routes and find shelter locations while following the latest guidelines from the CDC and your state and local. Have a plan for pets and livestock.
Have a shelter-in-place plan if your biggest risk is from ash.
Keep important documents in a safe place. Create password-protected digital copies.

Survive DURING

Listen to alerts. The Volcano Notification Service provides up-to-date information about eruptions.
Follow evacuation orders from local authorities. Evacuate early.
Make plans to shelter with friends or family, if that is a feasible and safe option, or to a public shelter. Check with local authorities to determine which public shelters are open.
If you must stay at a public shelter or other public facility, take steps to keep yourself and others safe. When possible, wear a mask. Masks should not be worn by children under two, those who have trouble breathing, and those who are unable to remove them on their own. Avoid touching surfaces and your eyes, nose, and mouth.
Review the CDC’s guidelines for “Going to a Public Disaster Shelter.
Avoid areas downwind, and river valleys downstream, of the volcano. Rubble and ash will be carried by wind and gravity.
Take temporary shelter from volcanic ash where you are if you have enough supplies. Cover ventilation openings and seal doors and windows.
If outside, protect yourself from falling ash that can irritate skin and injure breathing passages, eyes, and open wounds. Use a well-fitting, certified face mask such as an N95. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has a list of certified masks and the maker’s instructions on how to use the masks. Use a cloth mask to protect yourself for shorter periods of time.
Avoid driving in heavy ash fall.

Be Safe AFTER

Listen to authorities to find out when it is safe to return after an eruption.

Send text messages or use social media to reach out to family and friends. Phone systems are often busy after a disaster. Only make emergency calls.
Avoid driving in heavy ash. Driving will stir up volcanic ash that can clog engines and stall vehicles.
If you have any breathing problems, avoid contact with ash. Stay indoors until authorities say it is safe to go outside.
Do not get on your roof to remove ash unless you have guidance or training. If you have to remove ash, then be very careful as ash makes surfaces slippery. Be careful not to contribute additional weight to an overloaded roof.
When cleaning, wear protective clothing, use appropriate face coverings or masks. Poor air quality can worsen asthma symptoms. People with asthma and/or other lung conditions should take precaution in areas with poor air quality. Children should not help with cleanup efforts.
Engage virtually with your community through video and phone calls. Know that it’s normal to feel anxious or stressed. Take care of your body and talk to someone if you are feeling upset. Many people may already feel fear. Follow CDC guidance for managing stress during a traumatic event.

Hope this helps

An infant was born with facial nerve paralysis that occurred with delivery. As the infant ages, it becomes apparent that the fac
Ratling [72]

Answer:

lose their ability to proliferate once development of the nervous system is complete

Explanation:

<u>The nervous system is a very essential system in a person's body</u>. It starts developing from the first trimester of pregnancy and becomes fully developed during the woman's third trimester of pregnancy until the fetus is born. <u>Thus, anything that happens during or after the woman's pregnancy may affect the infant's brain development. </u>

In the situation above, the baby was born with facial nerve paralysis. This is a condition which causes some problems to the newborn, such as <em>uncontrollable facial movements</em>. It could be a result of trauma to the facial nerve. <u>The trauma can happen before or after birth. </u>

Remember that once the nervous system is complete, it cannot repair or proliferate anymore. This makes the cells in the nervous system different from all the other cells in the human body. In the case above, the infant permanently lost his ability to have a functioning facial nerve.  

Thus, this explains the answer.
