<span>Healing wounds, especially full-thickness wounds, require an adequate supply of nutrients. Wounds require calories, fats, proteins, vitamins and minerals, and adequate fluid intake. Calories provide energy for all cellular activity, and when in short supply in the diet, the body will utilize stored fat and protein.Sufficient dietary calories maintain padding and ensure that dietary protein and fats are available for use in wound healing. In addition, adequate levels of protein are necessary for repair and replacement of tissue. Increased protein intake is particularly important for wounds where there is significant tissue loss requiring the production of large amounts of connective tissue.</span>
Monitoring water changes can provide clues about the activity of a volcano. A sudden change could predict a volcanic eruption. Hydrologists also identify the paths that water takes as it flows down a volcano's side. Understanding how water flows can help us understand how lava might flow.
