Do we know how large dinosaur populations were?

Posted: 08 Oct 2020 12:27 PM PDT

When we're shown concept imagery of dinosaurs, we often see that dino's were plentiful. Is this accurate to the actual population sizes?

Can monoclonal antibodies like Adalimumab or Infliximab ever be given orally, is there any research looking to overcome the obstacles?

How do bugs consume water?

Posted: 08 Oct 2020 10:57 PM PDT

That's it! How do they drink?

When I drink, I use my lips, tongue and throat to guide water down to my stomach by muscle movement.

Since insects are made up of exoskeleton, I'm having a hard time envisioning the mechanical process they use to drink or swallow.

Do they have internal anatomy that functions in a similar way to our digestive tract?

Thanks!

What happens when someone gets infected with two different Viruses?

Posted: 08 Oct 2020 09:56 AM PDT

For example some typical seasonal flu and Covid-19? Does our immune system fight both more or less equally, but then maybe not as efficiently, or do you get some sort of "super reaction"? Or do I have some completely wrong idea about this in general?

Why there is am inconsistency between mass deficiency in proton and in nuclei?

Posted: 08 Oct 2020 02:15 PM PDT

When you bind two nuclei into more stable one with higher binding energy, the mass of the product is smaller, not higher, than mass of the subtracts. It is due to fact that new system got a smaller potential energy, so the mass is reduced according to E=mc2. So why it is opposite in proton? 3 quarks bind, so system has smaller energy cause binding energy. That means, proton should have smaller mass than quarks by analogy to nuclei. It is not, in fact proton is one hundred times more massive than rest mass of quarks.

What do I get wrong?

Looking at WWI/II fighter aircrafts, isn't it dangerous having the aircraft's propellers within the machine gun's line of fire?

Why cirrhosis happens only in liver?

Posted: 08 Oct 2020 06:09 AM PDT

Liver cirrhosis is caused by fatty liver, then inflammation which leads to scar tissue (fibrosis) and then cirrhosis. Why this cirrhosis doesn't happen in any other organ like lungs, heart etc. as inflammation can and does happen anywhere.

Can insects hear things?

Posted: 08 Oct 2020 05:08 AM PDT

By hear, I mean, with ears. I've always wondered whether the tremendously loud noise of people and big things around them causes them any pain.

What is the difference between Carbon Capture Storage and Carbon Sequestration?

Posted: 07 Oct 2020 04:42 PM PDT

I have heard these two terms be thrown around when talking about mitigating climate change, but in my research, I have found them to be the same thing. Are they different things?
