| Why do anxiety and depression often occur together? Posted: 06 Jun 2017 07:20 PM PDT I have seen many people who struggle with both depression and anxiety. I don't have anxiety. I can't bring myself to care about tomorrow, I'm too busy trying not to die today. Why do these two seemingly arbitrary things so frequently show up in the same people? [link] [comments]  |

| Posted: 06 Jun 2017 08:10 PM PDT In an organism such as a hermaphroditic fluke (flatworm), how does genetic variation get introduced to the genome? Since they basically have sex with themselves, how can these organisms continue to evolve? Is it exclusively due to chromosomal cross over that happens during gamete formation? [link] [comments]  |
| How does the structure of protein, fat, and carb molecules change how they affect our bodies? Posted: 07 Jun 2017 05:38 AM PDT such as the way a pound of fat is much larger than a pound of protein. What causes this difference? [link] [comments]  |

| Why does ice break in a hexagonal pattern? Posted: 06 Jun 2017 06:50 PM PDT This post spurred a discussion about why the ice in the photo breaks out in six directions. Does it have anything to do with the molecular structure of H20 or is it purely coincidental? [link] [comments]  |
| What happens to (small) bugs during rain? Posted: 06 Jun 2017 03:28 PM PDT I'm serious. Right now, it's mosquito season where I live, which results in me drowning them occasionally when I wash my hands and they are in the sink and such. These smaller bugs, with lithe bodies drown quite easily, or even if they don't die, they can't fly or get "paralyzed" for some time. Right now, it's also raining where i live. And there aren't any mosquitoes or other bugs in my room, which is usually full of them. So I was wondering, do mosquitoes or other bugs that don't love next to waters have built in water defense mechanisms, or are they just really good at hiding? [link] [comments]  |
| Airplane oxygen masks - bag does not inflate? Posted: 06 Jun 2017 06:15 PM PDT During the pre-flight safety instructions, the passengers are explained how to take the oxygen masks on. It is also mentioned that the bag will not (might not) inflate. I am just wondering, why is the bag there to begin with? One answer might be to reduce the pressure, but the mask does not fit tight, so air would flow out easily. [link] [comments]  |
| Do we know what weather was like on Earth during Pangea? Posted: 06 Jun 2017 08:00 AM PDT Or any other time our land masses had a different formation. I was thinking about the potential for storms and assumed that there could have been a way for storms to get massive in size whether for a short or long period of time. It is cool to think about the potential of super storms if all the right ingredients easily come together due to water currents, air flow, etc. [link] [comments]  |
| Why is it so difficult to eliminate microphone feedback? Posted: 07 Jun 2017 07:51 AM PDT 'Feedback', as I understand it, is essentially the microphone picking up the noise generated by the speakers, which is then amplified, emitted by the speakers again, picked up by the mic, amplified, and so on in a destructive cycle. It seems to me it should be simple from a signal processing perspective to just have the microphone filter out whatever sounds the speakers create to eliminate this feedback loop. So why is it still so challenging to implement and why is feedback still so ubiquitous? [link] [comments]  |

| How do particle accelerators work? Posted: 06 Jun 2017 07:45 PM PDT Kind of wanting to build a small one, if possible, just want to know what goes into one [link] [comments]  |
| Why did early humans not get constantly sunburned and die of skin cancer? Posted: 06 Jun 2017 07:33 PM PDT Thought of this as I got severly sunburned after like 4 hours in the sun on Sunday. [link] [comments]  |
| What determined the size and shape of the tectonic plates? Posted: 07 Jun 2017 05:43 AM PDT I was just thinking about plate tectonics, and how they have driven the shape of the world as we know it, but I don't understand why the boundaries between them formed where they are. I guess my question could be rephrased as 'Why are the plate boundaries where they are?' [link] [comments]  |

| How should a layperson decide whether to trust a psychology study? Posted: 06 Jun 2017 10:10 AM PDT The question obviously applies to all fields of science, but I was particularly interested in psychology studies after having looked at this paper demonstrating that you can actually become younger after listening to a Beatles song. I was prompted to look at the study because of this article on Daryl Bem and his ESP studies. The idea behind the paper and article is that there are problems with how these kinds of studies are done. As someone outside of the sciences, I have no tools to evaluate whether or not I should take this kind of work as being relevant or trustworthy. Where should this leave a lay audience, who will see a link to a peer-reviewed journal article and then assume that there's evidence to back up an assertion? [link] [comments]  |
| Why does a concussion prevent you from donating bone marrow? Posted: 06 Jun 2017 11:57 AM PDT I was looking on this website. Why would this disqualify someone from donating? [link] [comments]  |

| Posted: 06 Jun 2017 05:47 PM PDT Supposedly the Milky Way is moving at 1.3 million miles an hour. How do we know that? What is it's speed related to? [link] [comments]  |
