Why do cords and ropes get tangled?
Jun 21st
Entanglement often occurs when multiple objects are posited in bags. The corollary of this phenomenon is dependent upon the shape of the rope, wire or cable. All round-bodied linear objects lack aerodynamics or friction control, once they start moving perpendicular to body-length, or in a circular motion there is no counter-physics to keep the elongated round body in a stable position. As the object is unattached at both ends, the movement occurs in a perpendicular and circular tendency with a spiraling affect. Hence, from this action-reaction the object reverberates the motion throughout its inner sphere; the movement is perpendicular and More >

Why do identical twins have different fingerprints?
Mar 8th
Fingerprints are formed in the womb and are not impacted by genes, rather differing hormonal levels. Similarly, just like freckles, environment factors cause havoc on the skin, and can cause varying dissimilarity even though identical twins have exact DNA.
Can a human function with only half a brain?
Feb 4th
Thank you Elisha for your question the other night, here is a summary of my response.
A human being cannot function to ‘full capacity’ with the corpus callosum severed, let alone an entire hemisphere removed. This said, more than 60 epileptic children have undergone an operation formerly known as a hemispherectomy, and survived. So depending on your definition of ‘function’ the answer could be both yes and no.
From your initial question, it seems apparent that your understanding of function connotes an indifference in the individual. This would not be the case, as found by Michael Gazzaniga and Roger Sperry. Their More >
