Crazy Facts ` 10 ` and Weird Science Revealed
Crazy Facts ` 10 ` and Weird Science Revealed
What the layman the impossible , becomes an interesting challenge for intelligent scientists . They are actually excited when confronted with the facts that make a frown.
And , it's been proven , during this crazy science reveals the facts about the Earth and its natural surroundings . Do not believe ? Let's look at 10 of them , like the speakers quote a portion of News.com.au.
1 . Plant turns social beingsThey have no memory , but plants can recognize their close relatives and work together . Plants become less aggressive when surrounded by ' family members ' , help each other , rather than compete with fierce as when they are ' foreigners ' .
In a paper written by a biologist from McMaster University , Susan Dudley in the American Journal of Botany , assuming that the plant is being passive , resigned to fate , scientists found they behave Like the animals .
Some plants even seem to be a social , supportive family while pushing strangers from the neighborhood .
In the journal , Dudley explained Impatiens pallida , flowers regular , devote less energy than usual to growing roots when surrounded by relatives . Meanwhile , near the plants with genetically unrelated , they grow roots as soon as possible .
2 . The human body is an energy sourceWhen humans menghamba on energy - especially those from the fossil . Without realizing it , our bodies can actually produce energy . The average human produces about 100 watts at rest , and can be increased to 2,000 watts during intensive exercise .
As the site loaded Extreme Tech , most of the energy required for important tasks , such as the heart pumping and muscles flexing . However , there is a lot of energy is wasted , is released into heat .
Interestingly , almost all the wasted energy can be captured and converted into electricity , which then can be partially or completely replace our dependence on chemical battery . It is now being sought by scientists.
"Soon , a battery of human energy will appear . Was only a matter of time and extent to which the research is done , " said Extreme Tech loaded .
The first to be changed is the strength of soldiers, who often carry heavy gear and dragging .
3 . Male hippopotamus can get pregnantMale hippopotamus and exchanging roles in reproduction . Males had ' bag descent ' - where the females laying their eggs - and then gave it birth .
As the site loaded science , Science Daily evolutionary biologist from Texas A & M University , Adam Jones and colleagues examined the male parent has the external structure similar to the bag .
Once the egg is inserted , the male then releases sperm into the pouch to fertilize the egg .
"It would be interesting if it was just a bag folds where females lay eggs sort of bag , " Jones said . " But pregnancy males of some species of sea horses are much more complex than that . "
4 . Shake move more germs than kissingThis is exciting news for the couple : there's no reason not to kiss your partner , even though the flu . Origin ... keep your hands far apart .
"People do not want to kiss while the flu , when in fact , they are more likely to transmit infection by shaking someone's hand , " said a health expert Professor Sally Bloomfield .
5 . The immortal jellyfishIn 1988 , humans have finally found ' eternal life ' from the seabed . The finding comes a marine biology student from Germany named Christian Sommer , who was then aged 20 years .
As published by the New York Times , at that time , he spent the summer in Rapallo , a small town on the Riviera , Italy - where the previous century gave birth to the Word Friedrich Nietzsche Zarathustra ( Also sprach Zarathustra ) .
The creature is a species of jellyfish Turritopsis nutricula . When injured , he will transform himself into a blob , and started a process called transdifferentiation .
Cell creature will return to its initial shape and re- grow . Or effectively to regenerate .
Indeed, it is a jellyfish can be killed by predators . But if not preyed upon , he will not die .
6 . Close relatives of human fungalHumans share a common ancestor with almost all creatures , but we are relatively close to the fungus . In fact , fungi are genetically more to humans than plants .
As the site loaded io9 , the basic idea of the theory is the idea that terrestrial life forms come from various types of algae floating around the ocean .
Fungal protein is more like an animal than vegetable protein . Later it was found that neither animals , humans also , and mushrooms contain a component called lanosterol , whereas plants do not have .
7 . The age of the universe is 13.82 billion yearsThe universe has aged very elderly . Namely 13.82 billion years .
So , how old is the earth ? Based on radiometric dating of meteorites , the age of the Earth is more than 4.54 billion years . The planet where human life is very dependent old , broken , again solid .
A recent study conducted by the University of East Anglia , United Kingdom estimated that the Earth is still able to sustain life for at least 1.75 billion years . But the condition , as long as a result of a nuclear catastrophe , a giant asteroid impact , and other disaster not occurred .
8 . Human hair can withstand the weight of 12 tonsUnless your hair easy to fall off or even bald , combined hair on the head , or 15 thousand strands , can withstand the weight of two elephants at a time or 12 tons .
As published ehow.com , was named Dr.Frederic Leroy expert who issued the idea.
9 . Chickens do not need the headDo not get me wrong , the chicken would rather have a head . However , the fact remains , a chicken named Mike survival 18 months after its head is cut off .
Well , then how is he still alive ?
Chicken nicknamed " Mike the Headless Chicken " still has enough brain stem to continue to animate . He even toured the United States . As the star .
In his prime Mike can even make money as much as U.S. $ 4,500 or approximately USD 49 million in a month the show .
10 . The sun will be a giant diamondThe largest diamond found not to be in the Earth , but across the galaxy .
Namely , a dead star named BPM 37 093 aka Lucy , a distance of about 50 light-years away from the human planet , in the constellation Centaurus . The star was discovered in 2004 .
White dwarfs crystallized it into a lump of carbon that weighs 5 million trillion trillion pounds , or the equivalent of 10 billion trillion trillion diamond carat . Thus quoted from Space Today.
The scientists suspect , the Sun will also meet the same fate after death later , became a diamond chunks within 7 billion years .
" You would need a magnifying glass the size of the Sun to rate this diamond , " says astronomer Travis Metcalfe , of the Harvard - Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics . ( Ein / Riz )
