| Do flies go random when they fly? Posted: 16 Aug 2020 06:45 AM PDT We can see them fly, going in circles, stopping, and all seems very random. [link] [comments]  |
| Why are snail slime lines discontinuous? Posted: 17 Aug 2020 07:34 AM PDT My best guess would be a smooth area to glide on and a rougher area for traction, is this correct? [link] [comments]  |
| What causes the baby to turn head down and hold position in the final weeks of pregnancy? Posted: 17 Aug 2020 07:46 AM PDT For a pregnant women, the baby should start to turn head down at around week 33, and hold position until give birth. What causes this to happen? Does the uterus knows how to 'turn' the baby? Theres muscles in the uterus to do this? Or is this the baby's own instinct that he waddles himself to head down? And once the baby is in head down position, how does he maintain that position, but not being drifted away? What's holding him in position? [link] [comments]  |

| Can you train memory and concentration? Posted: 17 Aug 2020 07:39 AM PDT I am curious about this subject but I get the feeling that when I search for this on the Internet everyone who says that you can is trying to sell you something. So my question would be if it is scientifically proven that you can train those things and if doing so would bring you positive aspects to your life. Also I would like to ask to the experts if it is true that the current lifestyle is encouraging the opposite of developing good attention and memory skills and how can you effectively fight this.

| How do lungs clean themselves? Posted: 17 Aug 2020 01:33 AM PDT I'm mostly interested in understanding the mechanism for this because it's one of the only organs which is directly exposed to the environment. Thank you, in advance. [link] [comments]  |
| What is the current consensus in the field of bariatrics on mitigating obesity? Posted: 17 Aug 2020 07:24 AM PDT Obesity is a very politcally charged subject so it's difficult to get good information on what researchers in the field consider to be the best approach for governments/healthcare providers to adopt to combat the disease.

| Unexplained gravitational lensing events in the solar system? Posted: 16 Aug 2020 10:29 AM PDT In Planet X? Why not a tiny black hole instead?, the final paragraph says
What are these unexplained gravitational lensing events, and where can I learn more about them? [link] [comments]  |

| What is agreeableness in the Big 5, really? Posted: 17 Aug 2020 04:08 AM PDT I took a personality test some time ago, and my results were described as kind of stereotypical nerd -- high in openness and low in agreeableness. Agreeableness was explained to me at that time as a willingness to "go along to get along," which I don't really have much of, seeking solutions to problems more than social unity. Still, people generally seem to think that think I'm sympathetic and try to view disagreements from all viewpoints. I'm generally considered a serious team player, if a bit of a curmudgeon. I've been leading teams for a couple of decades now. So I was surprised when, a few years later (now), I tried to look up the Big 5 out of curiosity and find all manner of definitions of agreeableness, many of which seem to pit it as selflessness on a spectrum opposite selfishness. Others paint it as concern about your own feelings vs others during disagreements. (In this one, where's concern for truth or the best solution?) But again, there doesn't seem to be any elevator pitch for agreeableness that major psychology sites agree on. So what is it, really? p.s. If it ends up being selfishness, I'm definitely taking my personality profile off my CV. Haha. [link] [comments]  |

| How are spectral lines in a CCD image identified? Posted: 16 Aug 2020 10:38 PM PDT What kind of references do we normally use to identify spectral lines from a CCD generated spectrum? Also apart from the elemental composition is there any other way to identify if a given spectral line is from the chromospheric or photospheric region of the sun? Thank you. [link] [comments]  |

| Following anthropogenic climate change, how will Earth eventually cool down again? Posted: 16 Aug 2020 02:04 PM PDT Let's assume the climate will increase by 2 or 3 °C by the year 2100, which is vastly going to change ecosystems all over. And let's assume humans won't figure out a way to store or get rid of the excess greenhouse gases that are heating up the atmosphere (so no carbon capture etc). We know about the tipping points that will heat up the planet even further, but what are the most likely ways that the climate would eventually go back down to a pre-industrial era climate, and how long will it take for that to happen?
