What is the difference between cauterization and ablation?
cauterization is the act of burning, searing, or cutting to destroy tissue through the use of a chemical agent, such as a caustic substance, or laser, or surgical instrument which produces electric current, or radio frequency.
What does electrocution mean?
Electrocution is death by means of an electric current passing through the body. The current usually causes the heart to stop, but can also cause death through heating and destruction of tissue.
Why does a sheet of tissue paper rise when you blow air above the tissue paper?
Tissue paper is not very dense. I assume it is one piece and is on a flat surface. When blowing down straight and in the middle, air is able to move through the tissue paper because it is porous. You keep forcing air down and the molecules are bombarding each other and when completely through the tissue paper the fastest way to escape and allow the other molecules through is by escaping under the tissue paper and outwards. This is what lifts the tissue paper.

Why do you get an electric shock by touching a bare wire?
electric shock is a physiological symptom caused by an electric current flowing though the body. the current causes heating and, at higher levels, burns, and eventually death. The bare wire has an electric potential of some substantial voltage above ground. This potential causes a current to flow through your body to ground. if some other part of your body is not connected to ground, no current will flow. The current causes burning in your blood stream, your nervous system, and in you tissue. the current that flows through your body needs to be above about 10mA for you to perceive it as a shock. The voltage required to produce this current, by ohms law, depends upon the resistance between the point of contact and ground.
What is the use of electrical current to destroy tissue?
enterolysis
What is the type of tissue that sends electrical signals through the body?
The nervous tissue
What does bioelectrical impedance analysis do?
Bioelectrical impedance measures the total amount of water in the body, using a special instrument that calculates the different degrees of resistance to a mild electrical current in different types of body tissue.
A type of tissue that sends electrical signals through the body?
Nervous tissue is composed of neurons that use electrical signals to transfer impulses throughout the body.
Type of tissue that sends electrical signals through the body?
Nerve cells can transmit electrical impulses throughout the body.

Does current pass through bones?
It can, as with any other body organ or tissue.
Which type of tissue carries electrical impulses from your brain?
Nerve tissue
What carries electrical signals that affect muscle tissue?
motor nueronsNerve tissue carries electrical signals that affect muscle tissue. Nerve tissue's function is to move and coordinate the way the body functions.
How do you rid body of static electricity?
The reason why we feel electric current passing through our bodies is because it has two effects on our body tissues.1) the current stimulates nerves and muscle fibers, which produce pain and contraction of muscles.2) the tissue heats through dissipation of the electrical energy.Most people begin to feel electrical currents when it reaches a magnitude of 500uA(microAmps)
What is used to obtain an endocervical tissue specimen?

Instrument used to hold back tissue?
Retractor.
