| Mechanistically, why is benzene carcinogenic? Posted: 05 Sep 2019 10:13 PM PDT On paper it seems to me that benzene shouldn't be carcinogenic, since it isn't especially reactive. [link] [comments]  |

| Posted: 06 Sep 2019 05:43 AM PDT It would be unfortunate if this were the case as we would lack observational evidence but is it possible that at the moment of the Big Bang the mater and anti matter existed in equal quantities and as the universe inflated they remained separate? Perhaps the antimatter encircles matter at the edge of the universe. Is there any theories about this idea? [link] [comments]  |
| Are there any non-detrimental effects resulting from climate change? Posted: 06 Sep 2019 06:08 AM PDT I recently read that due to climate change, certain plants will start growing again in areas that could not have grown for thousands of years. Are there any other effects that could be seen as objectively positive in regards to diversity of species, species populations, or other misc. factors generally regarding the "health" of the planet?

| How are cast iron pans “seasoned”? Posted: 06 Sep 2019 04:42 AM PDT I study materials science and was thinking about the structure of cast irons and how oil could interact with it. How does this happen? [link] [comments]  |

| What is meant by Global Mobile Data Traffic (such as reported by CISCO)? Posted: 06 Sep 2019 03:56 AM PDT I think the confusion for me comes from the difference in use of the word 'mobile' here in England, which refers to a mobile phone (like cellular) or means portable. 📷 [link] [comments]  |
| Are birds classified as reptiles? Posted: 06 Sep 2019 06:23 AM PDT I was looking at the family tree for reptiles and I noticed that dinosaurs are a sub genre of reptiles. In school I learnt that birds are a class of animals and well as reptiles, how is this possible if birds are technically a sub genre of reptiles? Were my textbooks wrong? [link] [comments]  |
| How can I get started with computational protein design? Posted: 06 Sep 2019 06:03 AM PDT I have little knowledge of chemistry but I'm a very skilled, passionate programmer that wants to help with the research. [link] [comments]  |

| Could we use sprinklers on high rise buildings to flush out air pollution in our cities? Posted: 06 Sep 2019 05:20 AM PDT When it rains it flushes out the air pollution. So would it be feasible to install heavy duty sprinklers and switch them on at a set time at night or a time that would be quite on the streets to flush out the air pollution that builds up and harms our health? Obviously this would only apply to dense cities with high-rise buildings. [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 06 Sep 2019 05:16 AM PDT Essentially, going with the many-worlds interpretation, if someone were to take a chunk of land that housed a city on it and send it from one Earth to another, would it be a possibility to somehow have that chunk stuck between the two universes or would that just completely go against physics?

| Posted: 06 Sep 2019 05:10 AM PDT When two bodies, (say a basketball and a cricket ball) stacked on top of each other are dropped to the ground, the ball on top receives the energy from the lower ball and bounces off higher than it would if dropped independently. Something like this: https://youtu.be/2UHS883_P60 So if photons are dropped/thrown in similar fashion (but at speed of light) what will happen to the extra energy because the received energy cannot make the upper photon travel faster than speed of light (as nothing can travel faster than speed of light) [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 05 Sep 2019 08:09 PM PDT Take subduction zones for example; how does a plate literally sink underneath another plate? Is there a clear division between the two plates? [link] [comments]  |

| Will lightning hitting the water/ocean electrocute the fish in the vicinity? Posted: 06 Sep 2019 04:31 AM PDT And how far in the vicinity would it stop to electrocute you or fish? [link] [comments]  |
| Why is the housing of a prismatic lithium ion cell positive and from a cylindrical cell negative? Posted: 06 Sep 2019 12:43 AM PDT Hey Guys, I just noticed why fiddeling around with some cells that in cylindrical cells the steel case has a negative potential and for prismatic lithium ion cells the housing (Aluminium) is in 99% of the cases on the positive potential of the cell. Is it an arbritary choosing or has it to do with the electrochemical corrosion potential of the materials? So what would happen, if the housing of a prismatic cell would be put on neutral or negative potential? [link] [comments]  |

| What makes Methamphetamine more dangerous than Amphetamine? Posted: 06 Sep 2019 03:30 AM PDT Amphetamine is structrually the same as Meth except meth has 1 more methyl group yet meth is illegal most of the time (apart from things like desoxyn) but you can see amphetamine in many adhd medicines like aderall. I know meth is stronger and more addictive but I what I want to know is what happens at a molecular level. All i know is that meth can be synthesised using the leukart reaction and is metabolised in the body to amphetamine (Although i may be wrong) and then excreted as amphetamine but what makes that so addictive to the body. Is there a specific neurotransmitter or something that the extra methyl group messes with and if 1 methyl group is enough to massively change a drug why can't something like ethene have the same effect as meth since that is 2 methyl groups together.

| How do you differentiate between different types of cartilage from slides? Posted: 05 Sep 2019 03:28 PM PDT I cannot wrap my head around how to tell apart the various kinds of cartilage, and google has not given me a clear answer. I know there is hyaline, fibro, and elastic, but looking at them I can never tell which is which. What are some clearcut characteristics that I can use to tell them apart? [link] [comments]  |

| Posted: 06 Sep 2019 03:09 AM PDT I've seen several times how an orca eats a whole seal with one bite and then swallows it completly. But how does it digest the whole animal including all the bones? [link] [comments]  |
