As the penis and clitoris are analogous structures, it would seem as though exogenous androgens would have some affect in both cases, even accounting for the difference in naturally occurring hormone levels.

| Posted: 11 Jan 2020 08:01 AM PST First off: I am NOT seeking any sort of medical advice! I am asking out of pure curiosity. In my youth I often cracked my knuckles, neck, and back. As I grew into my late 20s, my knuckles/neck/back wouldn't crack as often or as well as they did before. When I was around 31 I got "put-under" to have my wisdom teeth removed. When I awoke, and for several days after, I was able to crack all of my knuckles, neck, and back as if I had never cracked them before. It was wonderful! :) But as the weeks went on after, that ability slowly left me. This has left me wondering what the hell happened when I was put under compared to muscle-relaxers, which I have been on before but never experienced that effect. So, on a muscular level, what are the differences between a muscle-relaxer and a general-anesthesia? [link] [comments]  |
| Would a Pangaea world be a flat giant swamp? Posted: 11 Jan 2020 02:20 AM PST If Pangaea is 1 giant tectonic plate then there wouldn't be any hills or mountains as there wouldn't be any plates pushing against each other. Because there are no mountains then rain just collects on plains possibly creating swamps? (i dont know if that is how it works). Would the landmass just eventually sink under erosion assuming there is no division? Anyway i would love to see a discussion about this and find the idea fascinating as many sci-fi movies portray planets as only having 1 biome and the possibility of this being scientifically plausible is cool.

| How/why are the boundaries between geological epochs (Jurassic, Pliocene etc.) defined? Posted: 10 Jan 2020 11:39 PM PST PBS Eons channel on YouTube got me thinking about it. First off, why are there two "scales" of distinction, e.g. Paleozoic|Mesozoic at a larger timescale and then as a subset of the latter, Triassic|Jurassic|Cretaceous? I know of a thing called the "Permian extinction" which marked the end of the Paleozoic/Permian periods... is that a coincidence? [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 10 Jan 2020 08:01 AM PST According to kinetic molecular theory, temperature is actually a measure of the average speed of molecules in a given sample. It makes sense then, that at some outlandishly high temperature, enough of the molecules would be moving at a significant percent of c. What is that point and what would happen? [link] [comments]  |
| Why is Xenon able to form a compound? Posted: 09 Jan 2020 08:46 PM PST As we all know, Xenon is a noble gas. It is part if group 8/18 of the periodic table. On a lower level, we learn that Noble gases cannot form compounds as they have full octet. However, on higher levels, we learn that Xenon can form Xenon Fluoride with Fluorine. So my questions are (TL;DR) 1) Which other noble gases can form compounds 2) Why can these noble gases form compounds 3) How does these noble gases form compound [link] [comments]  |
