Deinococcus Radiodurans is a bacteria that can withstand the harshest of the conditions! It survives in high temperatures, poisons, acids, and ionising radiation that would kill sny life on Earth. How? It has a very effective way of mending its own DNA using gen uvrA and unique enzimes!

Fungal mycelium creates a underground connection between tree roots that let them send impulses to each other, we could compare it to telephones! The connection lets trees inform each other about for example attack of a parasitic insect so that they have time to produce insecticide!

Mirror neurons are a kind of neurons in our brain that react on things others do, its this exact type of neuron that makes us laugh when we see others laugh or yawn when someone else did.

Atomic bombs are usually exploded in air instead on the ground. This is dictated by the fact that airbursts provide way less radiation and don't contaminate terrain as much. That's one of the reasons we can live in Nagasaki today but cant in Chernobyl.

Pancreas is one of the least known organs in the body,yetvit is as important as it can be. Today its time for pancreatic cancer, there is not too much to tell about, just numbers that are rather pessimistic, if late diagnosed, it has survivability of 3%. Thats why we should visit doctors regularly.

One quick question, why do you think we age? To be honest? Nobody really knows, not even sciencetist! There are some factors, we know affect our aging, but the answer to the question is not really known yet.

Oganesson is the heaviest noble gas ever made. Despite its position in periodic table as a noble gas, it is foreseen that it is a solid! For now no one has checked it in practice yet. Why? Its simple, its half-life is lesser than a milisecond and there were only about 3-4 atoms ever fusioned!

Even tho its widely spreaded that cows have 4 stomachs, it's not true, in reality its 1 stomach divided into 4 sections!

Fun fact:
Mitochondrions in your cells and plastids in plants used to be separate organisms, but they were consumed by adulterous cell, yet didn't get digested. Instead a symbiotic relation was formed. This theory is called symbiogenesis!
