| Posted: 05 Feb 2018 10:43 AM PST The depth of the lava zone is roughly 1200-1500 meters, and the gravity seems similar to Earth's. Could this happen in real life, with or without those conditions? [link] [comments]  |

| Posted: 06 Feb 2018 01:07 AM PST I hope this is the right place to ask this but I also wondered if there were other factors that influenced this, does it depend on the mother's mental health, age and other such influences? If so does the surrogate mother experience some form of postnatal depression despite not caring for the child in the long term? [link] [comments]  |

| Posted: 06 Feb 2018 02:16 AM PST Picture here, with tuna, pickles, and tomato topping. I grind flax seed, sesame seed, and sunflower seed to make a flour. Then I add egg, rapeseed oil, baking soda, and vinegar. Once cooked they slowly start changing color on the inside. The parts that were browned on the frying pan stay "brown", but the rest turns into a deep blue-green color. The flavor does not noticeably change after sitting for 12 hours. Could this be poisonous cupric oxide in my pancakes or some other dangerous oxide? [link] [comments]  |
| What is my computer doing when it's pretending to troubleshoot? Posted: 05 Feb 2018 08:46 AM PST I am having trouble connecting to the Wi-Fi at school. On Chrome the "There is no Internet Connection" page has the option to run Windows network diagnostics. Clicking on the option takes you to a loading screen where it says it's checking and troubleshooting all sorts of things, and it's final conclusion is to find the Wi-Fi router and turn it off and on again. This is like a bad joke from the IT Crowd! What is my computer doing when it says it's troubleshooting things? Is that just a button to press to make users think their computer is an omniscient being with the illusion of control? Does it ever actually, after going through all those loading screens that say "detecting problems", detect a problem and then solve it? [link] [comments]  |
| What is happening when we see "stars"? Posted: 06 Feb 2018 01:56 AM PST Various times I have seen stars in my direct and peripheral vision, what causes this to happen and what am I seeing? [link] [comments]  |
| What is the bond called between dissolved oxygen and water, is it a bond? Posted: 06 Feb 2018 12:44 AM PST Is there a bond or is it just diffusion due to atmospheric pressure? I'm interested in the mechanism that allows for the dissolution of oxygen in water and the relationship with temperature and salinity. Reference information would be appreciated. [link] [comments]  |

| Why does the Trinity site still have high background radiation, but Hiroshima and Nagasaki do not? Posted: 05 Feb 2018 09:14 AM PST So I was reading a Wikipedia article about the Trinity site where they tested the first atomic bomb (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trinity_%28nuclear_test%29?wprov=) and it says "More than seventy years after the test, residual radiation at the site is about ten times higher than normal background radiation in the area. The amount of radioactive exposure received during a one-hour visit to the site is about half of the total radiation exposure which a U.S. adult receives on an average day from natural and medical sources." Meanwhile, Hiroshima and Nagasaki are considered to have normal levels of background radiation. Some articles I read attribute the lack of background radiation levels in these places to the bombs being detonated in the air versus ground level. So why would they be different? I'm guessing perhaps the Trinity bomb was detonated closer to the ground? And why does ground versus air detonation affect the background radiation? Thanks in advance! [link] [comments]  |

| Do vegetarians exhibit physiologic responses to sensory stimulation by non-vegetarian foods? Posted: 06 Feb 2018 01:51 AM PST I.e. will a vegetarian person involuntarily salivate at the sight/smell of cooked meat, or have other digestive, endocrinologic etc. responses to non-vegetarian foods?

| How does adding a neutron to an atom change it so drastically? Posted: 05 Feb 2018 08:02 AM PST For example, how does adding a neutron to deuterium turn it into tritium and make it so dangerous? [link] [comments]  |

| how is the nicotine in e-cig fluid and other smoking replacement products made? Posted: 06 Feb 2018 12:40 AM PST Is it harvested from tobacco leaves and purified, or made synthetically? The reason I ask is because I have heard growing tobacco is hard on the farmland and wondering if the rise of vaping is going to disrupt that industry, or whether it will be business as usual, just in a different form.
