The freeze response

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Examples of responses or signs as mentioned above are common symptoms of the freeze response as one of the post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Two other important things are the fight or the flight response.

In general, some signs of identification of the freeze response are as follows:

  • Freezing up or being unable to move or respond physically.
  • Pale and numb skin.
  • Limitations or obstacles in breathing.
  • Palpitations or even a decrease in heart rate are accompanied by fear of threats during a traumatic event.
  • The biggest physical response from freezing is feeling paralyzed or feeling like you are coming out of your body (dissociation).

Freezing responses arise when there is no hope to fight or escape from dangerous situations. This natural response can sometimes be observed in some animals that "play dead" instead of running or fighting.

This is different from the fight or flight response which has one thing in common, namely hope. In a fight or flight response, there is hope that you might get out of danger and return you to your normal state.

<u>ANSWER:</u>

Freezing up or being unable to move or respond physically during a traumatic event is an example of trauma induced paralysis.

<u>EXPLANATION:</u>

  • This happens when the person is so frightened that he or she does not want to react in any manner.
  • In such situations, a person has no time to either respond or flee which are the two mechanisms of responding to a stimulus or an unexpected event.
  • In such cases, the brain freezes all the attention systems of the body and does not allow the body to react in any manner.

The pressure gradient in the ventricles exceeds the pressure in the pulmonary artery and aorta.
Anna35 [415]

Answer:

TRUE

Explanation:

In the cardiovascular system, the blood flows from <u>high pressure to low pressure.</u>

In the ventricular ejection phase, when the muscles of the ventricles contract, the<u> pressure gradient in ventricles rises</u>. This increases in the <u>pressure in the ventricles exceeds the pressure in the pulmonary artery </u>and aorta, thus opening pulmonary and aortic valves and ejecting the blood from the heart.

geniusboy [140]

The correct response of the nurse to the client would be "We'll be constantly monitoring your baby's condition. I'll let you listen to the baby's heartbeat."

<h3>What is preeclampsia?</h3>

Preeclampsia is defined as a critical pregnancy situation that is characterized by hight blood pressure which usually occurs from 20 weeks of gestation.

The signs and symptoms of Preeclampsia include the following:

  • Excess protein in urine (proteinuria) or other signs of kidney problems.

  • Decreased levels of platelets in blood (thrombocytopenia)

  • Increased liver enzymes that indicate liver problems.

  • Severe headaches.

As a professional nurse and a competent nurse, it is their duty to reassure their patients which is a way to calm down any situation that may cause psychological stress.

It is the work of the Nurse to reassure her client and that anything is being done to monitor the fetus.

You can further prove this by offering to allow the client listen to the heart beat of her baby.

The movement of ions through their channels require a discharge of the capacitance.
Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

The answer to the question: The movement of ions through their channels require a discharge of the capacitance, is, true.

Explanation:

In order for cells, muscular and neuronal, to perform their activities, they need to generate action potentials, that will permit these activities. In order for an action potential to happen, a cell´s membrance must be charged, or rather, its polarity must be changed, so that the cell can be charged and then fire. Usually, cells remain in a resting membrane state, in which, the extracellular matrix remains positive, while the intracellular space remains positive, due to ion, and anion presence in either. In order for the action potential to happen, these polarities are reversed through a series of steps in which ions, particularly potassium and sodium, sometimes calcium, will enter and exit the cell´s membrane to change this polarity. But in order for this process to take place, first a current, or stimulation, must motivate the cell to start the process. The capacitance is the capability of a cell to be ready to be activated or de-activated when stimulated, meaning, to be charged and discharged, when necessary. In order for this capacitance to permit the process of action potential formation, it needs to be discharged first, and this is done through the stimulus, which orders the cell´s membrane to initiate depolarization by opening up the ion channels. This is why the answer is true.
