FAQ
What is one of the most amazing facts about the human body
We have two eyes and two ears, two nostrils each, four limbs, four limbs and a penis. That's right, we have more than 50 parts of our bodies, but one thing is missing. The heart.
A heart is the pump that circulates blood throughout a body. The blood moves through the veins. It transports oxygen and nutrients to your cells. It also removes carbon dioxide.
Each minute, the heart pumps 5 liters of blood. This is equivalent of an adult drinking 2 to 3 cups of coffee each day.
Blood flows through the heart 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. Your heart beats nearly 100 times a minute while sleeping.
Skin color can be used to determine if someone has a medical condition. Capillaries are tiny blood vessels visible on the skin's surface. These small vessels carry blood from the large blood vessel in the skin back towards the heart. When blood flow is blocked, the skin turns blue or purple.
People with sickle cell disease lack red blood cells. They become very sick when their blood becomes hardened and sticky.
To stop bleeding from a cut, you can apply a bandage to the wound. Blood must continue to flow to allow the wounds to heal properly. Doctors insert a needle into the injured area through the skin. This allows the blood from the injured area to drain.
Doctors may also insert catheters (catheters), in an artery to treat a blood clot. This keeps patients alive until the clot has broken up naturally.
What dark secrets are there in Hollywood?
Hollywood is full of secret societies. Some are cult-like groups where members follow strict rules and rituals, while others are simply clubs for those who share common interests.
But there are also more nefarious organizations that control much of the industry. These include companies such as the MPAA (Motion Picture Association of America), which sets film ratings, and the RIAA (Recording Industry Association of America), which sets music licensing fees.
Numerous unions/guilds also represent actors and directors as well as writers, producers, and so forth. Large corporations own most major studios and networks of television.
It doesn't really matter how secretive an organization may appear, there is always someone who knows exactly what they do. However, we shouldn't fear them.
Instead, embrace them. Because they offer us information that can help us make better decision.
These people tell us what movies and songs will succeed, and which books will sell best.
They allow us to make informed decisions about what we buy, watch and listen to.
We can trust them so we can ignore their advice when it doesn't suit our taste.
They become more powerful because we choose to ignore them. They are the ultimate judges of taste.
You are free to ignore their messages if that bothers you.
Let's now take a look into some lesser-known but very real Hollywood secret societies.
Observe why they are important.
What is the most mysterious place on earth?
Antarctica is the most mysterious continent on Earth.
Why do we find this place so intriguing? It is unlike any other place on Earth.
It is remote and difficult to reach. However, there's more to this location than meets the eye.
You'll also find the strangest species of wildlife in this natural wonder.
Let's now see how this amazing destination came to be so well-known for its mystery.
Antarctica, The South Pole
Antarctica is not known by anyone. Some believe it refers to "land of ice". Others believe it comes out of Greek mythology.
Antarktis in ancient Greece was the name given the island where Zeus' twin brother brothers were born. According to legend, one twin was born in winter. Hence, the word antarctic.
Others believe that the name comes from the Greek words anti meaning against and tropos meaning to turn. This would mean land turned away from the sun.
No matter the reason, Antarctica is a place that has always fascinated people.
It is also the lowest, windiest continent, driest, and highest. It is too cold for trees, plants and animals.
This frozen wasteland is still alive.
Here are about 90% of all the living creatures on Earth. It is home to approximately half of all world's animal and plant species.
What is the secret to Antarctica's unique environment? Here, water freezes and becomes ice instead of evaporated into the air.
This causes large ice masses to rise above the ground.
These glaciers cover more than 80% of the continent. They are growing in size every year.
Since 1960, the Antarctic ice sheets has grown 60ft.
If the melting continues, the sea level will rise by up to 200 feet. That could cause massive flooding around the globe.
But not everyone thinks this is bad news. Global warming may be beneficial for some scientists. They suggest that rising temperatures could cause ice sheet melt faster, leading to floods that flush out toxic chemicals from soil and bodies.
Others, however, warn that this theory sounds almost like a plot for a science fiction film.
