Do we know that covid won't be like HIV and kill its victims 10 years from now? Posted: 12 Oct 2020 04:09 AM PDT Is there any evidence for or against the idea that Covid could be like HIV, and silently hide in its victims for many years and then kill them? Are we going to have a whole generation of people dying 10 or more years from now who had covid? The thought is terrifying, as it's a new virus. [link] [comments] |
Why does gene damage & mutation eventually end up with cancerous cells but not with something else? Posted: 12 Oct 2020 02:25 AM PDT For example why doesn't it end up with absurd but harmless features? Like, say, you have serious gene damage & mutation in the cells of your breast. Why do those cells become rapidly growing & reproducing cells, instead of, idk, growing weird red hairs on your breast? It might sound dumb and sci-fi but I hope you get the point.

How did Pauli know the neutrino was nearly massless? Posted: 12 Oct 2020 01:54 AM PDT In the letter that Pauli wrote where he first suggested the existence of the neutrino, he lists the conditions that the particle should be electrically neutral, spin 1/2 and very light (he specifically says similar to the mass of the electron) I understand why he knew it should be electrically neutral and spin 1/2, but how did he know that it should be very light?

Since sun’s gravity is stronger than earth’s. Why does the moon rotate around earth not the sun? Posted: 11 Oct 2020 10:30 PM PDT I know that it does that because it's closer to earth. However, I feel like I need more details to comprehend. [link] [comments] |
How do scientists measure the drainage basin of a river? Posted: 11 Oct 2020 11:48 AM PDT I read a comment on here saying that most of the continental US drains into the Mississippi River. What sources of water are they measuring, and how do they calculate the total land area that's feeding into a given river? [link] [comments] |
What's the relative speed of ribosome with respect to coronavirus RNA (within host cell)? Posted: 12 Oct 2020 12:42 AM PDT Also, I should be grateful if someone tell me whether the copying phenomenon is done in a unique way, or it may has error/s and results in different production of virus RNA.

How common is cancer of all kinds among tobacco smokers? Posted: 11 Oct 2020 06:04 PM PDT Im curious about overall likelihood of cancers in general from related ones (lung, esophagus, tongue) to rare (pancreas, bladder, stomach, etc). [link] [comments] |

Why will cocoa powder only mix with warm/hot water but won't with cold water? Posted: 11 Oct 2020 06:52 PM PDT So I noticed when mixing cocoa powder with water than when I pour cold water into the powder it really resist mixing up properly and it leaves a lot of cocoa powder dross on top even after lots of stirring. But when I pour warm/hot water it mixes up with little to know stirring. I suppose this is a food science question so I will tag it chemistry without that as an option. [link] [comments] |

In general relativity, why do objects with different velocities have different trajectories? Posted: 11 Oct 2020 09:01 PM PDT The theory of general relativity says gravity is not a force, but a curvature in spacetime. When you throw a ball, the ball falls down to the ground not because the Earth is pulling the ball down, but the ball is following a straight line in a space distorted by the mass of the Earth. When I picture this in my mind, I think two balls thrown from the same point in space with different velocities should follow the same trajectory, and the only difference should be faster ball hitting the ground faster. Of course this is not true in real life. Can someone please point out what's wrong with my mental model? [link] [comments] |

Can your saliva break down anything if given long enough? Posted: 11 Oct 2020 07:21 PM PDT For example, if you suck on your thumb forever, will the enzymes eventually break down your thumb? [link] [comments] |
Posted: 11 Oct 2020 08:47 AM PDT Hi, so I don't know, and I'd like to, how do we detect a positive to covid person ? What are we looking for during the test, the virus itself, or a reaction from the body ? [link] [comments] |
What are pimples and why do we get them? Posted: 11 Oct 2020 08:09 AM PDT What are pimples, why do we get them, and why do some people get extreme amounts while others seemingly get nothing? [link] [comments] |
