In the event of an earthquake, If you are in a car, pull over and stop. Set your parking brake. If you are in bed, turn face down and cover your head and neck with a pillow. If you are outdoors, stay outdoors away from buildings. If you are inside, stay and do not run outside and avoid doorways. Expect aftershocks to follow the main shock of an earthquake. Be ready to Drop, Cover, and Hold On if you feel an aftershock. If you are in a damaged building, go outside and quickly move away from the building. Do not enter damaged buildings. If you are trapped, send a text or bang on a pipe or wall. Cover your mouth with your shirt for protection and instead of shouting, use a whistle. If you are in an area that may experience tsunamis, go inland or to higher ground immediately after the shaking stops. Check yourself and others for injuries. Provide first aid for anyone who needs it. Check water, gas, and electric lines for damage. If any are damaged, shut off the valves. Check for the smell of gas. If you smell it, open all the windows and doors, leave immediately, and report it to the authorities (use someone else's phone).
Turn on the radio. Don't use the phone unless it's an emergency. Stay out of damaged buildings. Be careful around broken glass and debris. Wear boots or sturdy shoes to keep from cutting your feet.
Be careful of chimneys (they may fall on you).
Stay away from beaches. If you're at school or work, follow the emergency plan or the instructions of the person in charge.

Answer:

Weight gain and depression are symptoms caused by imbalance of pituitary and adrenal glands and the cortisol hormone.

Explanation:

The pituitary gland is responsible for the overall functioning of the body since it produces a variety of hormones. It is very small in size and is also known as the 'master gland'. It is made of two parts- anterior pituitary gland and posterior pituitary gland. The pituitary gland and its functions are controlled by the hypothalamus.

The anterior pituitary secretes hormones which act on adrenal glands, thyroid, testes and ovaries. The hormones produced are TSH, Prolactin, Luitenizing Hormone, Cortisol, Testosterone, etc.

Cortisol is produced by the adrenal gland under the command of pituitary gland. Cortisol helps in regulating blood sugar, blood pressure and helps in reducing inflammation. Any imbalance of adrenal gland will cause an increase or decrease in the production of cortisol. The symptoms produced on the imbalance are:

Obesity in upper body
High blood pressure
Mood swings, depression and irritability
Acne and other skin problems.

Why don't the hydrolytic enzymes Within lysosomes destroy each other?

Firdavs [7]

Answer:

A lysosome is a membrane-bound cell organelle that contains digestive enzymes. They break down excess or worn-out cell parts. They may be used to destroy invading viruses and bacteria. If the cell is damaged beyond repair, lysosomes can help it to self-destruct in a process called programmed cell death, or apoptosis.
