Answer:

Lightning can be best described as an electrical discharge, which is caused by the imbalances between the clouds and the storm and the ground or sometime within the cloud. It carries around 20,000 to 30,000 ampere of current when it comes to the ground.

It is not only the direct hit of the lightning that make you worry, but any strike that is close to us can be dangerous to us as it results in the release of huge amount of electricity in the surrounding area.

Contact [7]

Answer:

Explanation:Simply put: A period is when a woman's body releases tissue it no longer needs. ... Every month or so, the uterus lining gets thicker to prepare for a fertilized egg if the woman becomes pregnant. If the egg doesn't get fertilized, that lining is released from the body as blood through the vagina.

Period pain is common and a normal part of your menstrual cycle. Most women get it at some point in their lives. It's usually felt as painful muscle cramps in the tummy, which can spread to the back and thighs. The pain sometimes comes in intense spasms, while at other times it may be dull but more constant.
