Deep-brain stimulation has been reported to provide relief from depression.

Deep brain stimulation (DBS) is a neurosurgical procedure used for the treatment of many diseases such as Parkinson's disease, essential tremor, epilepsy, obsessive–compulsive disorder, dystonia. It includes the placement of a medical device called a neurostimulator which sends electrical impulses, through electrodes, to specific targets in the brain.

It is good method to use for the treatment when disorder cannot be adequately controlled with medications, but it can be risky, e.g. because of the electrode misplacement.

Size, shape, and position of grains that make up a rock
lutik1710 [3]

The right answer is The texture.

In petrography, the texture (sometimes called structure) of a rock characterizes the arrangement of the crystals between them at the scale of the sample, the thin slice or even on a finer scale.

Texture is a characteristic determined by the size, shape and disposition of minerals in a rock that is observed at the microscopic scale. It allows to build the relationship between these characteristics and the conditions of formation of a rock (especially in the case of magmatic rocks, the rate of cooling).
