When current passes through the body, it is referred to as an electric shock. This occurs when a person comes into contact with an electrical source, allowing electric current to flow through the body's tissues. The severity of the shock can vary based on the voltage, current, and duration of exposure, potentially leading to injury or even fatality. Electric shocks can disrupt normal bodily functions, particularly the heart and nervous system.

What is the tube called that urnie passes through to leave the body?
The tube that urine passes through to leave the body is called the urethra. It connects the bladder to the external opening of the body.
Does current stay in human body upon electrocution?
No. Current passes through until its source stops, then there is no more current.
Blood leaving the heart for the body passes through blood vessels called?
veins
High voltage by itself does not produce electric shock What does?
Electric shock occurs when high voltage passes through a person's body, typically when they provide a path for the electrical current to flow, such as through their hand or foot. The severity of the shock depends on factors such as the amount of current and the path it takes through the body.
What is the hollow tube of a microscope through which light passes?
The hollow tube of a microscope through which light passes is called the body tube. The body tube contains lenses that magnify and focus the light coming from the objective lens to the eyepiece for viewing.
What is the answer to a tube that leads out of the bladder and carries urine out of the body?
This is called the urethra. It passes through the penis in males and is joined by the outlets from the testes, but it has its own separate opening in females.
Fluid passes out of the body through the?
Urethra
Are body fluids good conductors of current?
When a current is passed through the body, the water-containing fluids primarily conduct the electrical current. Water is found both inside the cells, intracellular fluid (ICF) and outside the cells, extracellular fluid (ECF). At low frequency, current passes through the ECF space and does not penetrate the cell membrane. At high frequencies however the current passes through both the ICF and ECF...
How the severity of an electric shock depends on the current and voltage?
he severity of injury from electrical shock depends on the amount of electrical amperage (current) and the length of time the current passes through the body For example, 1/10 of an ampere (amp) of electricity going through the body for just 2 seconds is enough to cause death.
What is the meatus?
Any passage or opening leading to the interior of the body is known as a meatus. The external opening through which urine passes out of the body is called the urinary meatus.
How can current pass through us without being dangerous?
Basically, the amount of damage caused, or the dangerousness of the current, depends on how strong the current is (the so-called "current", measured in amperes) and how long the current passes through us. Small currents are harmless - in fact, our body uses small currents in nerve signals. And a strong current, for a very brief time - as in a discharge of static electricity - can be harmless, too, although it may cause minor discomfort.
What passes through the body organs?
Blood and oxygen.
