Answer:

Birds have preference to striped snails

Explanation:

The total number of snail with stripes is lesser in number as compared to the total number of snails with solid or no color. Despite this, the birds prefer to feed on snail species that are in minority to the total snail population.  

This represents likeliness of birds to feed on striped snails which constitutes nearly 56 percent.

Jobisdone [24]

Answer:

Seizure is an abnormal episode of motor, sensory, autonomic, or psychic activity resulting from a sudden, abnormal, uncontrolled electrical discharge from cerebral neurons.

Explanation:

Seizure is also formally known as an epileptic seizure which it's symptoms involve uncontrolled body movements mostly with every part of the body and loss of consciousness. Epileptic seizure lasts for the maximum of two minutes before the person returns to a normal state. Bladder control however, is usually absent at this stage. Epileptic seizure can be caused by either provocation or without provocation

In provocation, the causes are very low blood sugar and blood sodium, severe fever, brain infection or concussion. Without provocation; brain injury or tumor and a stroke.

When a seizure lasts more than a maximum of two minutes, it is declared an emergency but some seizures do last for about five minutes and it is regarded as normal. There hasn't been any form of cure for epileptic seizures but there are temporary treatments which can prevent frequent seizures.
