EFFECTS OF ANGER
Anger is often viewed as harmful. It does not only affect the person feeling this anger but those
around him or her. As these feelings get stronger, changes occur in our body. Our faces turn red and
carry a frown. Our teeth are clenched and our hands are closed tight. Our breathing becomes heavy
and this makes our heart beat faster. Our shoulder and neck muscles become stiff and our blood
pressure begins to rise. All these things happen because our body is preparing for something. It is
preparing for action. However, this action does not have to be harmful. People are often guilty about
something
feeling angry. But anger can be viewed positively. Feelings of anger tell you that is not right
and that something needs to change. The challenge lies in making sure that actions resulting from
can
anger will help rather than harm. Expressing our feelings help others understand the source of our
anger rather than fear its consequences.

Sneezing
Sneezing happens when our body is trying to remove an irritation found inside the nose. A special
name for this process is sternutation. How does a sneeze happen? When your nose is tickled, the
sneeze center in our brain receives a message. Soon, the other parts of the body that work together to
create a sneeze
such as the abdominal muscles, chest muscles, the diaphragm, the muscles of the vocal chords, the
back of the throat, and the eyelids receive this message. An explosion as fast as 161 kilometers per
hour sends the irritant speeding out of your nose. Examples of irritants in the air are dust, pepper, or
allergens such as pollen. Some experience having a photic reflex and sneeze as soon as they are
under the bright sun. Now, if it ever happens that a sneeze of yours gets stuck, look towards a bright
light to unstick your stuck sneeze.

DREAMS
We often say “Sweet dreams,” but have you ever wondered why we dream? Some say that
dreaming is our brain’s way of exercising. While we sleep, our brain may be testing the connections
and pathways to see if they are working well. Others believe that dreaming is our brain’s way of
sorting out problems. Problems that have not been addressed during the day are sometimes resolved
in our sleep. Yet another explanation is that dreaming is our brain’s way of fixing and organizing all the
information we have. While sleeping, our brains have a chance to sort out the information that we
want to keep from the stuff we no longer want. Still another idea is that dreams are just another form
of thinking. Will we ever get to know the answer to this question? Maybe we should sleep on it.

water. The eggs are covered and protected by a gelatin -like coating. In a few days, the
eggs hatch into larvae. The larvae breathe by means of gill ls like the fish. They live on the
yolk of the egg from which they come from. Soon the larvae become tadpoles.
The tadpole breathes through gills and lives in the water, and its long tail gives it a
fish-like appearance. As the tadpole grows, the tail gradually disappears, and its hind legs
appear. The gills are replaced by lungs, and short front legs take shape.
With two pairs of legs and with lungs finally developed, the tadpole becomes an
adult frog. It moves into land. The frog may live near the water but, will not and cannot
make its home in the water.
