Question

William got into a major car accident. He came into the emergency room with 3 large issues. First, he had a major cut down his right arm and was unable to stop the bleeding. He could not feel the tips of his fingers in his right hand and he was having trouble breathing. Which of Williams’s symptoms is caused by a problem with the nervous system?

Answer 1

Having trouble breathing

Step-by-step explanation:

When people get in car accidents, they tend to get scared and overwhelmed which raises blood pressure and causes fast breathing.

Answer 2

He could not feel the tips of his fingers in his right hand

Step-by-step explanation:

The human's "nervous system" is divided into two: the "central nervous system" and the "peripheral nervous system." Both of these work together to provide sensation to the human body.

If William cannot feel the tips of his fingers, then this poses a problem to his nervous system. It means, his neurons have a hard time communicating with the brain in order to signal the necessary information that he should be feeling now. This is probably brought about by a damage to the nerves because he had a major cut down his right arm.
