Defense Mechanism

Circumstances influence and compel people to behave in a certain way. One such behavior is a defense mechanism. It is employed by people to escape from unpleasant circumstances, thoughts and actions. Defense mechanisms are, thus, psychological strategies that help to avert and avoid unwanted feelings such as guilt or shame and situations such as threat and danger.

3 questions 1.) The middle ear chamber is an air-filled “hole in the head”, which is adapted to allow free movement of the tympanum as it vibrates. Unless the pressure in the chamber is equal to atmospheric pressure outside, the tympanum will be stretched outward or inward, impeding itsvibration and causing discomfort or pain. When moving up in the elevator of a tall building, the surrounding atmospheric pressure is: a) increasing causing air to enter the middle ear chamber through the Eustachian tube. B.) increasing causing air to enter the middle ear chamber through the auditory canal C.)decreasing causing air to leave the middle chamber through the Eustachian tube D.) decreasing causing air to leave the middle ear chamber through the auditory canal Ques 2 and 3 are in the picture
