When a person receives a successful donation, do the genes in the donated body part retain their difference from the host genes over time or is there some kind of assimilation that occurs? |

- If the earth's crust is constantly being recycled constantly, why are the continents the same since Pangea?

- When I see a star, did the photons entering my eye actually come from that star?
- If some animals are the transmitters of Covid-19, they surely must posses the antibodies for it - can we somehow, at least hypothetically, harvest and multiply the number of these to cure people?
- A pulsar exploded in an explosion akin to a large hammer hitting a bell causing it to ring. Does this mean the neutron star produced sound or vibration?
- Is there a name for a “Dunning-Kruger”-like effect where people with a high ability in one field can overestimate their ability in other unrelated fields, perhaps explaining why some very highly educated people can display arrogant and ignorant behaviour?
- How do flu viruses disappear and then reappears years later such as H1N1?

- EBV infection has been reported to be a risk factor for autoimmune diseases and cancers, Yet 90% of the people have contracted EBV at some point in their life. Are the 90% "at risk" or only a subpopulation (e.g those who contracted mononucleosis from it)? Why ?

| Posted: 19 Jul 2020 11:36 PM PDT As an example, if I receive blood donation from someone else. Does that mean my blood now contains blood cells that differ in DNA? If I went for a DNA test would that produce mixed results? Would it be two distinct ones forever or will the DNA mix over time? [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 20 Jul 2020 06:23 AM PDT It has been over four months since a widespread belief that Ibuprofen exacerbated symptoms of COVID-19. Shortly after, there were many articles that claimed that many researchers found no such evidence, but at the same time, advised to avoid taking it (if possible) until we learn more. Have we learned more? [link] [comments]  |
| Are traces of Neanderthal DNA found in every single person on Earth? Posted: 19 Jul 2020 11:25 PM PDT I've been reading that Neanderthal DNA is now found in all populations on Earth, including, as it was recently discovered, African populations. I'm confused about this wording. Does that mean every single person you test on Earth will have Neanderthal DNA? Or does this mean that Neanderthal DNA is found in all populations, but not everyone in those populations will necessarily have Neanderthal DNA? Thanks [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 20 Jul 2020 07:16 AM PDT As the tittle implies, would they turn into coal and eventually diamond deposits? Or are petroleum and coal different types of fossil fuels formed by different geological events and thusly turn to different things given extreme time? [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 19 Jul 2020 09:45 PM PDT This image is what sparked my curiosity. Since pangea was just a combination of all the continents, or close to that in my understanding, why is it that when the tectonic plates get recycled we still have the same massive continents? [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 19 Jul 2020 08:44 PM PDT SARS-CoV-1 and SARS-CoV-2 are described as being very closely related, but we've still been hearing a lot about new facets of COVID-19, some of them related to how the infection presents, and others related to the actual mechanisms by which the virions replicate. So certain factors appear to be entirely new to SARS-CoV-2 - most important seems to be the pre-symptomatic contagion - but others are maybe not so clear? For example, we hear a lot about how much COVID-19 affects clotting. Is it likely that this contributed similarly to the severity of SARS, but SARS didn't infect enough people to warrant the same degree of scrutiny (and resultant identification of this effect)? In another sense, SARS-CoV-2's use of filopodia to spread infection adjacent cells - do we know if this mechanism was possibly used by the original SARS as well? How likely is it that many coronaviruses can make use of these functions, or affect bodily functions in similar ways, but most just aren't strong (virulent?) enough to do so? [link] [comments]  |

| To what extent does the increase in testing relate to increase of daily covid-19 cases? Posted: 20 Jul 2020 05:38 AM PDT I'm sorry if this question has been covered but I couldn't find a clear answer elsewhere on the web. It seems as though there has been a significant increase in testing availability over the last couple months and I was just curious if this is driving the increase in new cases we are seeing recently. I was also wondering if publishers of data have some way to adjust their figures to account for increases in testing. Thanks in advance! [link] [comments]  |

| Why do CPUs have a maximum frequency they can achieve even if they are maintained cool? Posted: 19 Jul 2020 03:35 PM PDT So, I've seen a lot of overclocking videos in the past, and have always asked myself the same question: What does 'stability' mean in CPUs/Software? Like, for example, a lot of people have been able to keep it at really low temperatures with liquid nitrogen, but they still can't push, I don't know, say 10GHz on a chip because it's not 'stable enough' I want to know what that 'Chip stability' means, like, the chip can't withstand that frequency? Is it a Software/Windows problem? Both? I want to understand why we can't push them really far even if they're really cool. [link] [comments]  |
| How does the Maillard reaction brown meats with low carb content? Posted: 19 Jul 2020 08:03 AM PDT If browning of meat is related to the Maillard reaction requiring sugar and amino acids, then how does it work in meats with low carbon content like chicken breast? Are the glucose traces sufficient or is there another process involved? [link] [comments]  |

| Posted: 19 Jul 2020 07:58 AM PDT Every medical article mentioning EBV and increased risk factors never explain the causal link and whether it impacts every EBV-infected person or only the one who got severe illnesses from it (e.g mononucleosis). [link] [comments]  |
| Do people with aphasia experience dreaming differently to normal subjects? Posted: 19 Jul 2020 03:16 AM PDT Also, are there any other interesting differences other than imagination? [link] [comments]  |
