Answer:

The cornea is an avascular tissue.

Explanation:

Since the cornea doesn't have any blood vessels the body's immune system is less likely to detect the foreign graft, and therefore, rejection is unlikely (although possible).

For the same reason, the lack of blood vessels that carry oxygen and nutrients will greatly slow the healing process. That is why this transplant can take so long to heal. For most people, it can take between 6 to 12 weeks to fully recover from the surgery.

A person who feels very good after receiving a compliment, but very bad after being insulted, would sore high on measures of <u> "self-esteem variability".</u>




The connection of self-esteem variability to identity, state of mind, and conduct was explored. Self-esteem variability was estimated by figuring the standard deviation of self-appraisals made amid seven days of experience-examining. Members high in self-esteem variability were reluctant, socially on edge, and avoidant of social settings. Confidence fluctuation was mostly free of the theoretically comparative attribute of affect-intensity.

To specify, during a bath, the baby has visual stimuli to look at (bubbles, water, etc.), pleasant fragrances (from the soap) and sounds (splashing).
