Answer: Electricity can travel through AED

Explanation: AED is Automated external defibrillator.

AED is used in patients that have cardiac arrest,it is used to re-establish or return back the heart rhythm of a patients whose heart stopped beating due to an illness or accident,the AED does so but analysing the heart rhythm of the victim and re-establishing an adequate heart rythym when shocked.

Using an AED is delicate,though it can be used in every weather condition, but the victim should be moved to a dry area because water is a good conductor of electricity,this is for the safety of both the victim of cardiac arrest and the Healthcare provider,when the pads are placed appropriately in the patient/victim,the AED analyzes the rhythm of the patient, if it is a shockable rhythm,the health care provider slightly moves away from the patient and press the shock button to deliver the shock.moving away of the healthcare provider is to avoid electrocution.

Answer:

the amygdala—the seat of emotions such as anger—matures earlier than the prefrontal cortex in adolescents.

Explanation:

                       Amygdala is set of neurons in the brain that controls the set of emotions in a person.

                       At the adolescent stage, a person's both physical as well as psychological development takes places and a number of changes occur in the body both physically and emotionally.

                      So Donna's daughter at her adolescent stage is going through the same changes. Donna's daughter gets angry easily and at very small things. She instantly flares up at the slightest provocations.  

As a specialist, I would inform Donna about her child's behavior by explaining the biological reason ---

the amygdala—the seat of emotions such as anger—matures earlier than the prefrontal cortex in adolescents.
