Definitely, the human heart is a very importantorgan in the body. Here are some
facts about the heart 👇
1 What you see in the animation above happens about 2.5 billion timesover the
course of your life.
2 The heart of an adult personis the size of a closed fist and weighs just 340
grams. It is divided into 4 parts: 2 atria and 2 ventricles.
3 It pumps 85 grams of bloodwith each beat, which is equivalent to more than
9,000 liters aday, with the heart pumping 5 liters of blood to the body in a
minute; In anhour, that's 400 liters.
4A woman's heart beats a littlefaster than a man's. In 1 minute, it averages 8
beats more.
5 The human heart generates energy capable of supplying trucks up to
30kilometers per day. If you count the energy generated over a lifetime, you
canget to the Moon and back to Earth.
Q2 What does too much lemon do to you?
A2 Lucia Garcia Worked atHospitalsAug 28
Lemons are rich in vitamin C, dietary fiber, and minerals. Eating 1 to 2lemons
a day is very beneficial to health.
Lemon tastes very sour, and lemon contains a lot of organic acid andcitric
acid.Lemon is very acidic. Eating too muchlemon will corrode tooth enamel
significantly and cause dental problems.
In addition, lemon can cause excessive secretion of gastric acid, whichcan
damage the gastric mucosa and cause symptoms such as stomach pain and bloating.
Q3 Why are masala dosas always made whenyou order one but samosas are
usually made and just kept there on display? Whycan't they just make a samosa
when you need one?
A3 KanthaswamyBalasubramaniam Lawyer Fri
8 Minutes vs 30–40 Minutes. That isthe main difference
Dosa remains crisp for around8 minutes post preparation. After thisDosa begins
to get soggy and less crispy and loses taste by the second.
So keeping a Dosa prepared and in a shelf would mean serving a Dosa thatis cold
and less crisp which takes away 80% of the taste.
Same for Poori. A Poori lasts for 8 minutes or so after which itsubsides and
becomes less crispy and less tasty.
In roughly 8 minute s- the Dosa becomes soggy and loses the Crispness
Samosas are Deep Fried and have a Maida casing which is very thick , so a
Samosa retains itscrispness for a longer time (Around 30 - 60 minutes or even
upto 3 hours)
PLus a Deep Fried Samosa is very hot and the Potato Filling gets reallyhot and
this causes the taste to suffer when eating a hot samosa.
Its tastier to eat a Samosaafter 30 - 45 minutes when the Samosa is cool enough
but still crisp.
Yet after some time - the Samosa becomes less crispy, soggy andtasteless just
like a Dosa but because this takes much longer - a Samosa can bemade and kept
on display.
Q4 How is it that when you heat water ormilk using an induction stove,
the heat is not transferred to the upper portionof the vessel which still
remains cold?
A4 2 Answers Charles H Birks , Engineering (1980-present)Answered Aug
13, 2019
It is a function of the heat transfer mechanism.
First, let me state that whenthe liquid is finally hot the walls of the pot
will also be hot.
A gas flame heats a pot at the bottom first, but the gasses from theflame
travel up the sides too, heating them with very little delay via convective
transfer.
An induction heater heats onlythe metal in close proximity to the coil in the
stove top surface. Heat will also travel up the side walls by conduction in the
metalwalls, but they are relatively thin so the resistance to heat transfer up
along the walls isgreater than the resistance in the heavy bottom.
While the bottom is heating most of that energy is spent heating theliquid in
direct contact with the bottom. As that liquid heatsit creates a convection
current in the fluid, constantly bringing new coolliquid to the bottom of the
pot.
That convection current serves to cool the side walls at a rate greaterthan the
metallic conduction of heat up through the thin side walls.
The convection current in the liquid will generally rise in the middledue to
lower friction losses, and sink at the walls.
Eventually when the liquid is all hot the wallswill also be hot but not as hot
as the center current that is still rising.
You will see this same current pattern in a traditional gas heated pottoo, but
the amount of heat imparted through gases at the wall is greater.
This convection is often called a rolling boil and will be obvious to
anattentive observer.
2ND ANSWER- AryaBhagwat, studied at Centre PointSchool Answered Aug 13, 2019
It's not that no heat is transferred to the upper portion of thecontainer.
The induction heater heatsonly the base of the container while in case of a gas
stove heat is transferred to the upper edge of the container by convection (
due toproducts of combustion rising upwards )
If you wait for sufficiently long time the induction heater too heatsthe upper
edge of the container
Q5 Do most of the people attend weddingsfor food? Will the same number
of attendees still come if you don't serve food?
A5 Ratnamala Kamath M'comfrom Karnatak University, Dharwad (Graduated
1988)Fri
Food is the mainstay of allfunctions in India.
We can never even dream of having a function let alone marriage withoutserving
food.People bond over food and a guest going out hungry would amount toa mini
scandal and sacrilege.
Since yours is a hypothetical question. I will answer it anyway. Peoplewho
attend marriages can be classified into 3 types
The close relations and friends of the bride and groom for whom its a must to
attend the wedding
The not so close friends and relatives for whom the food is an incentive to
attend the wedding and
The friends and relatives who attend the wedding only for the food.
Regarding your question, the people belonging to the first category willattend
the wedding whether you serve food or not.
In the second category some may and some may not attend the wedding iffood is
not served.
In the third category nobody may attend the wedding.
So the number of attendees will definitely be lower if most of yourinvitees
belong to the second and third category.
Q6 What happens if an adult eats a lot ofhoney?
A6 Lucia Garcia Worked atHospitals Fri
Honey is extremely nutritious and contains more than 180 nutrients suchas
sugars, proteins, amino acids, minerals, vitamins, active enzymes and so on.
Eating honey every day can supplement the nutrients the body needs,promote
metabolism, enhance immunity and resistance, and avoid the risk ofvarious
diseases.
But you can't eat more honey, just eat 1 to 2 tablespoons a day.
The main components of honey are glucose and fructose. 100 gramscontains about
35 grams of glucose, 40 grams of fructose, and 2 grams ofsucrose.
Both glucose and fructose are monosaccharides, which can be directlyabsorbed by
the body without being digested. If you eattoo much honey, the excess sugar
will be converted into fat, thereby increasingthe risk of obesity.
The glycemic index of honey is 58. Although honey has a lower glycemicindex
than sugar, but honey is still a food with a high glycemic index. Eating too
much honey can easily cause blood sugar to rise.
Q7 When one of the resistors is open, whatdo you think will happen to
its current?
A7 Gopala Krishnan ,former Assistant General Manager 1996-2004 at
Department of Telecom (1966-2004)Answered just now
It is not clear whether the resistance is disconnected at both ends. Ifit is
disconnected in the farther end electric charge will remain in theresistance.
If it is fully open, connecting point will have electric charge. Resistance has
to be removedAFTER SWITCHING OFF SUPPLY

A9 Joseph Francis KnowsMalayalam Nov 23
Probably this would irritatea lot of malayalees, but my leastfavourite malayali
food. Is “puttu”. Yes i hate puttu.
Its basically steamed rice cakes with coconut sprinkles.

According to my parents, i am not allowed to talk about it untilpoverty is
eradicated from Africa. Cant complain.
Q10 Why don’t snakes tend to eat preythey haven’t killed
themselves?
A10 Donna FernstromProfessional ball python breeder from 2007 to
2014.Nov 23
This is basically based on one of those ‘trivia’ bits that gets passedaround as
fun fact. It’s essentially modern day folklore.
While some snakes are fussy about their prey, the reality is that themajority
of them won’t turn down a good meal as long as it’s a species that’son their
menu, even if it’s been dead a while.
Roadkill is an easy food source for non-picky terrestrial carnivores.Which is
to say, most of them.
(Pet snakes in captivity areusually fed frozen/thawed rodents these days).
