Electricity kills and injures people. Below shows the electrical injuries a person may have:

1) Electric shocks

Electric shocks can cause the person's heart to stop beating properly, preventing the person from breathing and can cause muscle spasms.

2) Electric burns

Electric burns occur when the current when flowing through the tissue will heat up the tissue which result in deep burns. Such burns often require surgeries and are permanently disabled.

3) Loss of muscle control

Loss of muscle control occurs when the person gets an electric shock. The muscle spasms can be so painful that it is able to break bones and dislocate joints. People cannot walk properly if they cannot control their muscles.

4) Thermal burns

Thermal burns occur when they get too near hot surfaces or near electrical explosions. Overloading of power points, faulty or poorly maintained appliances are the ones that can get very hot.

This picture is an example of hydroponic farming. This type of farming saves space for other uses. It is simple to use and there is a higher chance for these plants to be high quality produced and soil diseases could be prevented. Therefore, hydroponic is definitely one of the good way for growing crops.
