FAQ

Which is the most mysterious spot on Earth?

Antarctica is considered the most mysterious area on Earth.

Why do we find this place so intriguing? Because it's unlike any other place in the world.

It is remote and difficult to reach. It is not what you see.

These wild animals are also found in this natural wonder.

Let's find out how this mysterious destination became so famous.

Antarctica: The South Pole

No one knows exactly why Antarctica was named Antarctica. Others believe it means "land with ice". Others believe it comes out of Greek mythology.

Antarktis was an ancient Greek name that was given to the island where Zeus and his twin brothers, Zeus. According to legend, one twin was born in winter. Thus, the term antarctic.

Others believe that the name is a combination of the Greek words anti and tropos which mean against and turn. This would mean land turned away from the sun.

Whatever the reason Antarctica holds a special fascination, people have always loved it.

It is the driest, windiest of all continents. It is too cold for trees, plants and animals.

And yet, this frozen wasteland is teeming with life.

About 90 percent of all living things on Earth live here. About 50% of the world's plant and animal species can be found here.

What is Antarctica? Here, water is frozen into ice rather than vaporizing into the air.

This causes large ice masses to rise above the ground.

These floating glaciers cover over 80%. They're getting bigger every year.

The Antarctic ice sheet has grown 60ft since 1960.

If the melting continues, sea level could rise up to 200ft. That could cause massive flooding around the globe.

Not everyone believes this is bad news. Some scientists believe that global warming can be beneficial. They suggest that rising temperatures could cause ice sheet melt faster, leading to floods that flush out toxic chemicals from soil and bodies.

However, others caution that this theory sounds a lot like a plot in a science fiction movie.


What is the most secretive place in the world, and why?

It may surprise you to hear the answer. It may even make it uncomfortable, as it challenges our perceptions of reality and our lives. However, there's a reason for this place to exist. It's not what we would expect.

It was called the City of God by ancient Greeks. It was also called the City of Destruction in the Bible.

It's known in India as Kashi (Kashmir). It is called Novgorod (Russia).

Here in America, however, it is called The Village That Disappeared.

One tiny town in western New York State lost its 1,200 inhabitants without trace. A road sign pointing to the former location of the town was all that was left, except for a few bodies and cars.

This little community vanished and no trace remains to indicate where or when it disappeared. Some say the earth swallowed it up. Others claim a meteorite strike destroyed it. Some believe that it was taken by aliens.

The residents of this once prosperous community believe that whatever happened, their town is not gone forever. They had just moved from one town to the other.

A website is available to track the disappearance and recovery of Zugspitz, which was lost in the Great Depression.

The question is, where did this place go? It's actually in Switzerland!

The border of Austria and Germany is at Zugspitze. The lake Lake Zugspitze is just beyond the mountain's summit.

I have always been fascinated by the fact that so many towns have vanished, but some remain. Why do some disappear while others survive? I decided to investigate.

I wanted more information about the mysterious disappearing of towns. What causes a community to disappear? How does one place go extinct?

It turned out that there are many theories about disappearing towns. One theory holds that a town disappears if all its buildings are demolished. Another theory says that the town just moves. The third theory is that the town was never actually there.

The fact is that hundreds of towns all over the world have been swept away by the ground, despite theories to the contrary. This video examines the history and current status of these places.


These 5 facts are amazing about the liver

The liver is responsible of breaking down toxins and storing nutrients. It helps maintain a steady body temperature and regulates blood pressure.

Are you familiar with the expressions, "I feel sluggish today", or "my head feels heavy"? These symptoms may be a sign of liver disease.

You may notice symptoms such as dark urine, yellowing skin and fatigue. These aren't all warning signs. You should immediately consult your doctor if you have any of these symptoms.

The liver is an essential organ. It is vital for detoxification, metabolism, immunity, reproduction, and digestion.

  1. The average adult liver weighs 1,400g.
  2. A baby's liver is about half the size of an adult's at birth. It is four times larger by the time an infant turns three.
  3. The liver is located below the ribs on the left-hand side of your abdomen.
  4. There are 16 major lobes of the liver. But there are also many smaller ones.
  5. The liver contains about 10 million individual red blood cells.


How does your brain control your body's functions?

The brain communicates with other organs to ensure their cooperation. The brain controls everything that happens in your body. It tells you your stomach to digest food; your lungs to inhale air; and it tells you your arms and legs how to move.

Your brain is made up of billions upon billions of nerve cells that are connected together in groups called neuronal groups. Action potentials on Axons are an electrical signal that neurons send to each other. Each neuron is covered by a cell membrane. There are channels within the membrane that allow ions such a sodium or potassium to enter and exit the cell. The neuron is lit by an electric charge created by the movement of ions.

Neurotransmitters are chemicals released when a neuron fires. Neurotransmitters are able to bind to receptors in the second neuron. This opens ion channels that allow ions to flow in and out. The second neuron also fires.

When a presynaptic nerve receives an impulse, neurotransmitter release takes place. The impulse travels along the synaptic pathway that connects both neurons. The transmitter binds directly to the receptors in the postsynaptic nervous neuron, and triggers the firing.

Neurotransmitters are important for communication within the nervous system. They also help coordinate activity between different parts of the brain.
